One thing i had learned on the hard way were, scammers will always make a way to scam you, some projects from scammers use paypal, to make they looks like legit, with bitcoin is for them a new tool to take our money without mercy and no worries at all. How many of us here had invested atleast once at hyip?

Its been said a few times now already and i still see people posting that bitcoin is "too" illegal but all types of currencies are currently being used for illegal activities, WAY more than bitcoin currently is, but i understand why bitcoin is being used because it doesnt hold bound to 1 type of currency. Easy exchange to anything you like and you know exactly what your getting... thats why its a cryptocurrency.
I dont get you point drazah,you mean usd is used for illegal activities? lol it is obvious that criminals in America wont use euro to pay for drugs.btc is fairly used for illegal activies because it is anonymous and very safe plus the system of bitcoin actually supports scammers and criminals.

How is it obvious that criminals in America wont use euros to pay for drugs? All types of money are used for "illegal things" is my point, but that topic with Bitcoin typically blows up a lot more (As you can see from this thread) much more so than fiat money which has been going on forever.

Any currencies can be used for good and other things , even bitcoin is online digital currency same applies to bitcoin also, it depends on the person where and how use , if they use it for good ,results will be good  Smiley
Yup, I agree on this, In any currencies, can be used for illegal things. Yes, many people keep their black money In dollar because the price is always high and it is very stable. Like that Bitcoin also used. Yes, it depends on how the people will use this Bitcoin. And what purpose people are using Bitcoin. Now a lot of people are using it for Gambling, So where gambling is illegal there all Bitcoin is using for an unlawful purpose.
It's really nothing of a new story seeing bitcoins used for illegal trades or used in crimes.
As far back as I can remember with bitcoins, it was largely used in online black markets as a currency.

I totally agree that bitcoin use in illegal activity since bitcoin is anonymous and hard detect is easy for them to use it to illegal, many good things to used bitcoin more than illegal activity same as currency they also used it for illegal.
When we get only benefits out of BTC where there is no investment is needed, why this should be used for illegal purposes. When some one supports you why should we be against him. Lets start from us to do good things.

Lol I guess bitcoin is already been used for illegal activities long time ago since the bitcoin spreaded to some countries and become a first decentralized peer-to-peer payment method it is most used on the darkweb's blackmarket like what i've saw before when didn't anything about bitcoin yet . And maybe it is used for illegal activities even when outside deepweb/darkweb maybe on the normal web also .
yeah, but not all the content in deepweb/darkweb is illegal, you can do some research for your homework or thesis the content in deepweb is very true not like here in normal web the other are fake.
how dare you just simply trust any content on the deepweb and saying its true,if you really ever get into deepweb,there's indeed many actual and true content,but not every content is true,there's also exist bunch of fake content and shitty content,logically every side of internet have its negative and positive side

Indeed not everything is illegal on the darkweb but for the most part of course it is but we cannot blame them...
Like people already said every currency is used by criminals and we cannot stop this.
Right. We can not stop illegal money's movement. But can have control on them. Always on each task there are two ways opened to complete. One would be completing the task going on the right direction and the other one wise-versa. You can complete a  task much quicker if you money place a vital role there. If not you have wait to see the result. The money can be used for illegal purposes. This depends on each one.

yeah just like other people stated in the comments. People will always use Any kind of money to do those  illegal activities.
Btc is not an exception just like cash. So yeah i  think it has no difference whether its btc or cash
We all know that bitcoins used for illegal activities are mostly exaggerated. The issue sounds like Bitcoins committed crimes.

Bitcoins are the form of currency and the criminals can use whatever currency to conduct their crimes. Bitcoin is widely used and it's no surprise for the criminals to use it. They will have to use some money whether it's bitcoins or paper money.
Yeah They choose bitcoin because if you use bitcoin online you have a freedome you are free and you are far in any taxes and no running government..
Many people wants freedome they want to do anything they want.. but these years i think here in my country they are restricted bitcoin they are adding some security and asking for real identity.. so that they can prevent scam or crimes from online to our country..
So i think bitcoin will be legal here but very restricted..

i think that thats correct and all the cryptos might be used for bad stuff and i think that it is better to use bitcoins only for the legal stuff, i hope that there wont be any more illegal crimes

That will not happen. Cryptocurrency especially bitcoin has a dollar value so it's 100% money. And because that is money it's common it will be used in any kind of activity.

Also transactions done in bitcoin are different in fiat transactions so advantages in using both of this are being used.

Are dollars used for illegal activities?
i think not only dollar but all other currencies either these are local currencies or crypto currencies, they may be used for both good and bad activities. i think they need is to stop the ill legal activities with out arguing that for what kind of activities the currencies are use for.

All currencies can be used for illegal activities but cryto-currencies support more illegal activities that the identity of a person doing illegal activity is not disclosed.

I see more and more acrticles of bitcoin being used for illegal activities
will this hurt bitcoin in the long run , will governments ban this just like they started to do wih paying in cash for some services
to harden the use of illegal , and money laundering
Yeah to be honest I do think that it is being used by some illegal activities but I do not pay any attention to that sort of stuff.
I am here to make some money and not to be a police officer, so if those people want to take part of any criminal activities that is on there behave.
