it is probably true that these virtual currencies are vulnerable to illegal transactions, money laundering and terrorism financing, given the absence of regulatory and supervising authority.

Yes, they are using it for stealing your money if you gonna invest in bitcoin, and their plan has finish before saying alot of bitcoin information maybe they gonna talk to you like a sales talk, then of course you will become interested. After you invest they will gonna be hacking or stealing your money before you injest your money in bitcoin so be careful those people who are trying to hypnotizing you when we talk about bitcoin...

I once read an article that says bitcoin is used as a payment transaction for terrorists and hackers. And maybe you guys in this forum also already know it. But here i want to convey my personal opinion in that matter. I think that internet and bitcoin interrelated. Many terrorists and criminals use internet .so also with bitcoin which used perpetrator However, despite all these issues, do people make concrete efforts to ban the internet? No. Not because removing and banning Bitcoin is difficult, but because the internet offers more positive than negative. For the same reason, we have to be more careful about our mindset for Bitcoin, because much evidence has shown that Bitcoin brings many positive, if not more, effects than the internet. Internet and Bitcoin are just devices that 'bad guys' and 'good people'. Fortunately, the world is filled with more people in the 'good people' category.
criminals prefer bitcoin more than fiat money because it's anonymous, safe,... Like silk road, bitcoin was it's main payment.

I've also read the same thing with you, used by criminals and so on. but we are good at using bitcoin today. we have to be wiser. do not let us also use it as a negative thing. for example gambling and the like.

Yes, for some criminals already use bitcoin as a means of transaction.
They are clever enough to remove traces, because bitcoins are hard to track.
For that we must be more careful, especially against the hackers.

Criminals have always used technical innovations for their criminal purposes. No exception is the crypto currency, which allows the use of money anonymously and without outside control. But it does not come out of this that the crypto currency should be banned. In road traffic accidents involving the use of cars in the world, many more people die than from military conflicts. Nobody raises the question of banning cars because of this.

Sad to say but bitcoin is the easiest way for criminals to transfer or launder money as it is hard to trace. These are the cons for anonymity. Criminals will always find ways to transfer funds and the government also will find ways to catch them

If you feel sad you should not join a criminal team that has no responsibility for doing so. I don't like people who use Bitcoin for that.

Bitcoins are an effective way of money laundering for criminals. This is a safe way that the government can not control.

I believe yes because it is a mode of payment which is anonymous and easier to use even in illegal transactions. I have heard of the same news as well since it is in the main stream, there are news and facts shared by the people about it. However, it also brings negative feedback about bitcoin but as users, what we need to do about it is just to use it appropriately.

We can't never know what people do with own money and with Bitcoin is the same thing, but media could tell this just for bring down the price of Bitcoin.

I cannot say either yes or no. With the unique design of bitcoin to not show any true identification of the bitcoin user, it is hard to know whether the criminal using bitcoin to do bad things. The design of anonymous has it good and bad side.

So what if it really is used by cons? They use Fiat more than crypto. Are you going to dump fiat for that reason now? no, right?  Cheesy Because that will be dumb. The blacksmith made a knife. You can cut veg and fruits with that, or you can kill a man with that too. What you'll do with a tool is your choice and that doesn't make the blacksmith or the tool bad. Yes, maybe it made the life of the criminals little easier but it didn't start all those crimes right? So the problem is not with Bitcoin, it's with the system. Bitcoin was not around 15 years ago. Was the world free from crime back then? Think...

Speculative bubble or no, perhaps the greatest challenge facing Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies in general, and the broader world of blockchain is the fact that all of these efforts in some way support criminal endeavors.

I have seen similar news on TV creates panic in investors BTC type of currency and similar things could be done with real life currency too.bitcoin can use by good and bad people, they can make cyber crimes with bitcoin .I think some people use it at criminal activities. That very shameful. They can earn money and use it at good sides. So they should be removed. Anyone can't stop bitcoin.

Every person are allowed to use bitcoin, even the criminals. Bitcoins has no limitations .BTC is a currency just like other currency and you can used it for any kind of activities.


I think the goods illegal is one reason why people think that bitcoin that bad. but if you think about it, what can be used by criminals or terrorist lately. I actually heard about bitcoin when I watch the video on the Web dark. said that bitcoin usually used there to buy drugs or illegal transactions.
