>Buying bitcoin requires ID
If you bought BTC with a valid ID, you're doing it wrong. But don't worry, use any mixing service advertised on this forum, or "gamble" on any illegal interweb dice site promoted here, and you're good to go -- no more link with your valid ID.
Sadly, this doesn't work with IRL bank accounts.
I swear, it's like dealing with stubborn sulky children around here sometimes
>Buy bitcoin with cash to buy something that you could have bought with cash in the first place, how smart is that.
Not smart at all. Oddly, you can't buy buy your bath salts with cash from DNM, you need bitcoins.
That's why people buy bitcoins. Duh.
>Buying drugs and guns with USD through HSBC bank
Are you telling me that since there's crime and injustice outside of bitcoins, we should let bitcoiners do khrymes because it's only fair?
What kind of broken logic is that?
We are getting off topic.
What I am trying to say is that it is the money that internet needs.
No, it's money that *you* want the internet to need. Probably because holding a bagful.
1) It allows micropayments without visa, mastercard commission (roughly 0.35 usd +3%)
Bitcoin does not allow micropayments, it's already the leat efficient micropayment channel. what kind of a micropayment channel charges five cents to send a penny shaving? What kind of a micropayment channel can handle *3 TRANSACTIONS PER SECOND, MAXIMUM SUSTAINED"?
2) You can transfer money abroad without banks and Westernunion (20% and 30 minutes in the bank)
No. You can transfer bitcoins abroad. Then the recipient has to sell those for actual money. The trick is difficult, that's why so many remittance cos went belly up.
You need to buy shit abroad, use your international CC
3) You don't need to open any account at the bank to transfer funds (not everyone in the world has that opportunity)
So those underserved living on < $2/day have internet and computers/unlimited 4G on their iPhone contracts?
4) No central authority or government can stop you from using these benefits. (freeze your account)
Err... Right, weren't we talking about bypassing AML/KYC? Yeah, we were, and now you're listing it as one of bitcoins' advantages.
Before bitcoin there was crime, after bitcoin there will be crime. Bitcoin is not helping and not stoping it.
Well no, bitcoins is helping it, that's what we're talking about. Yes, you can do khrrymez without bitcoins, but bitcoins makes shit like ransomware and extortion a hell of a lot more practical. That's why 40% of all interweb crimez involves bitcoins
