Topic: Terrorists use Western Union, not Bitcoin - page 3. (Read 3827 times)
Since the begining bitcoin related to black market,drugs,terrorist,lets say there are a group of companies scared about the potencial of bitcoin and what it may become in the near future,i believe bitcoin is the gold digital,soo we will see it boom over the next yeas has happened with gold.
Everyone can use bitcoins and dollars, why do even bother if terrorist use it or not!?
Knife can be used for cutting bread and for cutting throats..Knife is not guilty!
This is the point we all have to understand, almost all thing or service has multiple use and the one who uses it should be responsible for the result afterwards rather than those services. Knife can be used for cutting bread and for cutting throats..Knife is not guilty!
and terror yesterday in Jakarta also using western union , not bitcoin.
how you know it?any website or article tell about that?i think they use cash money,but anyway its not important to know what they use for terrorist funds.

Dollars is the currencie that leads almost all transaction between countries and services soo wester or even cash is the main currency of those people bitcoin would be a risk to them to play.
There is an article about bitcoin is not useful for terrorist.

And one thing for sure is, they're use dollar for transaction rather than using bitcoin.

Bitcoin is not the problem, and further restrictions on it are not the solution. Criminals and terrorists are using all sorts of technology to try to hide their activities over the Internet, but those who turn to bitcoin as part of that effort are making a big mistake

The man, using the false Samir Bouzid identification card at a Western Union outlet in the Brussels area, wired 750 euros ($807) to Hasna Ait Boulahcen on November 17, the Belgian prosecutor's office said. Both of the publicized suspects -- the men going by the names of Kayal and Bouzid -- were at the store from which the money was sent.
Time to stop the stupid rumor that BTC is used by the bad guys. They're using WU.

Another interesting news. Finally we have the definitive fact that all the criminals of the world don't use bitcoin but use Western Union to make them criminal actions. The above news and the above post testify indisputably that bitcoin finally must be called totally clean and no one can tell (after the above facts) that is used in Dark Web or in everything who has to do with the criminals. Must stop to be besmirched from all the journalist who "find" facts about use of it for illegal things or everyone else who create fake facts about being dirty of it. Now everyone of us have an deadly fact about its being clean: the above news and the above post. So shoot up to everyone and glorious to the clean bitcoin.
I think most of the bitcoin exchanges now require KYC data and you have to provide personal info and the origin of your bitcoins to be able to withdraw in cash.
Bitcoin was once used by criminals, specifically on the dark web. Can't blame people for making the same assumption for terrorist. Most terrorist get their money from smuggling oil or trafficking women, so I'm not surprised to hear Western Union would be used to fund terrorist organizations. It's probably way more used.
In my view point when terrorists use western union they will be identified . But if they use bitcoin it will be anonymously
It is never a fixed thing. Since the terrorist are just the people who live within us, they can be able to use any type of currency they want and that which is convenient to them. It is however not good to always taint the bitcoin.
Somewhat unrelated, but 90 percent of U.S. bills carry traces of cocaine...
lmao, what i can say is, based on what you have told about, those US bills acts like drugs? then US government is fooling themselves.
at least bitcoin could not carry up any drug even for the physical one (no news about the "physical bitcoin with trace of cocaine"). From

dumb post
terrorsts use both bitcoin and wastern union
Of course, terrorists are going to use whatever they can find to do their evil acts, but we are talking about volume here, and to present Bitcoin as some sort of massive threat when it represents a microscopic amount of money being used to perpetuate those acts, it's laughable at best. FIAT will always be the most used weapon by terrorists, not BTC.
Terrorist use more fiat then bitcoin,because bitcoin has flutuation and well they cant loose money on the operation,but i believe that todays is hard to loose bitcoin as it looks stable at 440 dollars... but well they would need to show id to buy a large ammount of bitcoins at exchanges that are regulated,soo some use fiat others use crypto,but i doubt the most dark business knows bitcoin.
I thought it was impossible, because when you send money with western union, you need a valid personal data or ID card,
terrorists prefer to cash or through a bank with a fake identity (perhaps)

this news point out that terrorist will use every possible thing to be used , even WU can be easily bypassed, and back to few week ago that people say bitcoin is just for criminals and terrorist because of "Terrorist use bitcoin" news is very dumb, and if that so, what about USD? because from im first here until now i just know that average people trade their btc for USD and terrorist do it too
All the cool terrorists are using Walmart-2-Walmart now.
