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.
Bitcoin is blessing to every people. Using bitcoin in bad things is a choice of the holder of bitcoin. Meaning you should not blame bitcoin if it is use in illegal things. There are are many things in this world that are good but if you choose to use it in bad, you should blame it yourself not to bitcoin.

Not only bitcoin, any crypto currency may be used by criminals for buying illegal things, because the anonymity of crypto currencies. Therefore it is very difficult to track the transactions of them.
Bitcoin Main goals not used criminal activities. If some people it used criminal activities Who can not be held responsible for all Bitcoin users. Why not, one socity all quality full people are live.
yes they are using bitcoin, criminals use bitcoin because it is not traceable they can hide their illegal transactions easily. they use bitcoin to scam people also.
I do not know how can you say this since there are a thread here about bitcoin not being a real anonymous digital currency since your address can still be tracked and the myth that says that bitcoin is used by criminals is not true since as I have said, it can be still tracked.
I think many criminals use bitcoin for illegal transactions or buying weapons or drugs, because bitcoin can also be used as a purchase of weapons or drugs, because bitcoin can be used by everyone or allowed to use bitcoin and even criminals as well.
That's mostlikely the reason why bitcoin is risky and not tolerated by the other country since it's history of transactions is untrackable and much more vulnerable for illegal activities.You're right bitcoin and internet is entirely different to each other but both of them might be used in such illegal activities by criminals and etc since it's difficult to identify their unknown identity if they will used either internet nor bitcoin for such evil deeds.
Everything will be control by criminals who dont have dignity to do crime even bitcoin use by abusing people such like scam and want to earn money from scamming all peaople use it thats why we cannot tell when, who or what they use to do crime and bitcoin can be used and there is little possibility to stop it when it comes to high quality criminals.
you are right but i think if criminals are using bitcoin so it's not a mistake of bitcoin because bitcoin is a currency and currency dont know who is good and who is bad but i will request to bitcoin administration to find a solution for it because bitcoin price is very high and especially in third world countries its price is very high if they change bitcoin in their local currency so they can get a very good amount of money and hen they can use it for different crimes such as killing ,drugs dealing and many more.I once read an article that says bitcoin is used as a payment transaction for terrorists and hackers.

Yes?? We dont really know but I think so. Because bitcoin is really handy especially to those who work behind the scenes.
On my opinion, I believe it is used by criminals, has been used by criminals and will continue to be used by criminals. I remember the first silk road and how it was used to purchase illegal drugs and all but that doesn't mean it doesn't have good uses.
People who are buying bitcoins are no exemptions. Any people can buy bitcoin, even criminals or even an ordinary person. As long as he has money to buy bitcoin, he can transact bitcoin and trade it.

To be honest, this is my first time reading a thread saying that bitcoin are used by criminals as payment transaction. However, we cannot control those criminals to use bitcoin because obviously, bitcoin is created for good purpose, but there are bad people who abused it. Internet is commonly used to make crime because it is the easiest way, however bitcoin is only used for transactions and in real life, fiat is also used by criminals to buy drugs, guns and etc. So in short, it is almost the same.

As far as i know the bitcoins is really used in the black market before it was popularized in the mainstream because the bircoins are very active in the deepweb until the people discovered the deep web and they are now known by almost teh wold technology literate in the whole world. Not knowing that before bitcoins are just being used to buy drugs amd other illegal activity.

My friends told me about this but I can't believe that they can use this for crime. My friend told me that bitcoin use as a transaction for drugs because here there is no evidence when it comes to transaction. I think that is the other reason why some country did not accept bitcoin as payment because they all know that bitcoin is use by criminals.
This is a real freedom so it seems that anyone can commit a criminal act aimed at anyone or for their own enjoyment. It's a difficult transaction to track for what it does but if they're smart.
They also use USD$100 bills. Probably their favorite. Should they try to ban those too?

Yes it is true that these bitcoin ends are used by criminals and hackers, to buy something forbidden like firearms for trafficking in drugs and other crimes, since transactions using bitcoin will not be tracked by the state or other. 
There is often public misconception that Bitcoin is mostly used by criminals, but nothing could be further from the truth. This is mainly because many people think Bitcoin is anonymous, when in fact it’s the opposite - all Bitcoin transactions are transparent for the whole world to see. People might not be able to link the identity to Bitcoin right away (that is also why it is sometimes called ‘pseudo anonymous’), but once they do, they can track everything you’ve ever done on the Bitcoin network. This makes it a particularly bad tool for illicit use
Bitcoin is very convenient tool for criminals cause the bitcoin network is very large with lots of transactions every day it's difficult for police to find terrorists or drugdealers that's why bitcoin in combination with darkweb is an area where criminals can do whatever they want. This is a bad side of such a cool technology but if this will be restricted it can damage the freedom of ordinary people that don't have a crime deals.
I believe the darkweb had a hand in boosting the bitcoin price. Anybody can use it since access does not require KYC, even a 10 year-old can access it with the right computer proficiency. Anyone here actually would do the same given the motive.
This the reason some countries are still not legalizing or approved cryptocurrency in their respective domain because it is anonymous transactions and can be used by criminals and terrorism..
