Like any other currency bitcoin is also used for illegal activities and no one can have control to stop it and criminals will continue to use it in future too.
Yes, they will make benefit of any currency they find and like for their business, and only governments can control them by giving opportunities for their citizens so that they are not trapped by criminals to make more criminals.

i believe that bitcoin is being used for illigal activities just as much as any other currency

As long as it has a value it can be use to do illegal activities just like other currencies, but I think its not just currencies that can be use in illegal activities.. just like what we saw in movies, criminals have a barter and swap their guns with drugs..

Its fair. Not just of bitcoins value it's been used in illegal activities. Due to the anonymous nature and faster transfer bitcoin is given priority.
But I Think the criminals like only one thing in bitcoin which is its feature of anonymity , with that they can buy any thing like weapons and drugs etc and will remain anonym to the sellers etc.
The value of bitcoin does not matter for them they just do their business with a currency which they find beneficial for them and as bitcoin is not supported by any government so they find it for themselves.

Which would you think is the main currency used in deep web?
Bitcoins are very perspective because of its anonymous transactions, therefore it is being used widely in deep web.
Google it and you will find that so many illegal activities or products are being purchased using bitcoins.

I think Criminal can use anything to fulfill their desires. Does that mean you will blame the thing involved in question?
They also use things like cars, knives etc., so will they be banned for it? of course not imo.

Sure some bitcoins are being used for illegal activity, the same is true about money like USD and other currencies as well, Criminals are using every known currency in the world in my opinion.

I have heard in news on google that in France attack, bitcoin was used for buying weapons and other facilities for them, and so they remain anonymous while buying them.

Bitcoin is being used for illegal activity of course, Like any currency in the world and criminals use any currency to try and get some profit from it. it's just the fault of those using it and not the currency itself.

You need not to go somewhere else to find that bitcoin is being used for illegal activities, let alone the selling of gmail and facebook accounts in the digital goods section. in the deep web, there are drugs being sold for bitcoin and its no surprise. we all know fiat and bitcoin is no difference since they both have good value.

They keep sticking the bitcoin to criminal where in the past paper money was used by the criminals to do bad stuff and they didnt have anything to say about that.

even all of the currencies in this world must have been used for an illegal activities. The problem is not the currency itself, because it's not a living things it has no mind. The one who we should blame is the people themselves that using it, because they are a living things and they have mind.

bitcoin is just like any normal currency. It can used to buy food or drugs, toys or weapons. So it depends only on the owner how he would use his money. so do not blame btc for that. bitcoin have something strong against illegal activities which is every single tx can be traced

Even bitcoin is illegal in different countries and also real money is using for illegal activities. Bitcoin just make it a bit secretive for criminals. But anyway criminals just trying to find a good method for their activity nothing special.

Offcourse like many countries people use any kind of ledger of illegal activities. Bitcoin is not special about that.
If you look to the last couple of years I think it even went down. But sure bitcoin is easier to use for criminals..
