Of course, there are criminals who use bitcoins or other criptocurrency for payments. However, the same criminals use US $ for payments. Does it mean that US dollar is also criminal? Huh

this is real that there is some criminal that are had been used this currency for what may ever they have to done for so we are out of that this is their concern for that they may have to face for even though that they have been used this for in crime or anything else.

Yes it is used by criminals as well as cash because both of them are anonym in usage but that does not mean it is a bad thing per se.

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.

I agree with you. the government should be more open to the eyes of bitcoin and cryptocurrency because many people are economically assisted by bitcoin. should the government not only see the bitcoin from the negative side only

True, both are greatly benefited by the existence of the internet and bitcoin. With this facility they (both criminals and good people), can interact or transact in accordance with their own needs.

I also first heard bitcoin was on some facebook page says that the criminals use bitcoin as payment for some torture that you can use bitcoin to pay for criminals to catch who you want then you paid bitcoin if you want suggest something that they will do to a person they catch. It could be happen live.

Bitcoin also use to buy illegal firearms, called "Blockmarket".

Yes Bitcoin is used by criminals. Because Bitcoin is open for everyone and there is no limit of using Bitcoin. there is permission for everyone to using Bitcoin. most of the criminals uses Bitcoin to pay to the people who works for them.

Those facts are really hurt but we have to accept that. Bitcoin is an open source with could be used by anyone even crinimals. They're all free to use Bitcoin without asking any permission from anyone. I think it's a bad thing but it's the reason for Bitcoin for using popular in the deepweb.

Since Bitcoin doesn't require a real identity i think that anyone can use this metod of payment. But i really don't think that this thing should stop development of Bitcoin and this whole market.After all everybody works for themselves in an idependent manner.

It is quite possible that criminals are using bitcoin to transfer their funds and the reason is that you can not track bitcoin transactions. And i think this is the the main reason behind its legalization issue.

Faithful reflections. Year after year, new useful technologies are being created, but there are always people who use them in a harmful way and this is no reason not to develop.

Yes it is unfortunately bitcoin has been always connected to the criminals,
It is a perfect get away or a perfect currency for them ,Remember the Silk Road I think that's what started this whole thing bitcoin has been known because of it,
Bitcoin is also a perfect way for money laundering .

Yes criminals are everywhere and we cant stop them from doing those thing because that was their hobby now. Bitcoin can really be use by criminals since no one knwos about the transaction that was done between the people. Unfortunately, corruption was pne example of it, since no one knows about the transaction they can freely hide it in their account. They can also store it there instead of using bank.

Did you know that every human being on this planet is carrying a illegal substance in their bodies at all times?

It's called "DMT" and it allows you to have dreams. So technically everyone is a criminal.

So if anyone were to use Bitcoin , or cash or anything else to pay for stuff , you'd still be a criminal?

Yes like some people are using it to purchase weapons for terrorist, some news is saying that but they don't have proof of transaction, that's also a disadvantage of our crypto world, some news also saying that it may be used BTC to give money supply to ISIS but same situation, next is non-criminals can use it for some light crimes that they dont know its already a crime.

Bitcoin is anonymous and easy, which means its a favorite among criminals.Maybe you heard the news regarding WannaCry The malware locked a users out of their computers and demanded money payable in Bitcoin in order to unlock. Despite the quickness in slowing the attack, the attackers received thousands of dollars in Bitcoin. In fact, four primary areas of criminal activity lend themselves to cryptocurrency: tax evasion, money laundering, contraband transactions, and extortion – not to mention the theft of cryptocurrency itself, which is all too easy with Bitcoin

i totally agree if they say bitcoin is been used by criminals but that aint the cas cause bitcoin has brought more than bad,and just because some people are using it for the wrong reason doesn't mean errybdy does?.

I feel that if cash and web is being utilized by criminals, I see no motivation behind why BTC won't be utilized by criminals. The amount increasingly that BTC exchange is decentralized and can't be followed to a specific people. It benefits criminals more use to accumulate their riches.

Yes they use it money laundering and i think it roots on corruption and theft . Perfect for them to use, anonymous, untraceable and no third party needed. Easy. Those who’ve used bitcoin to scam people is also considered crime.

I think so, especially corruptor. They can use bitcoin or other coin to clean their money (money laundry). By using crypto currency they can transfer their money between trading platform freely and cash their money out of country. Isn't it obvious...? Huh
