probably 90% of the bitcoin related purchases are marijuana related
the other 9.95% are opiates, pain pills, psychedelics, etc..

then 0.05% business selling computer parts and shit to nerds so they can *prove* they are not for drug use

Which one of these were you on when you wrote this total bullshit?

Seriously though, where did any of those numbers come from?

A) Out of his arse
B) Out of thin air
C) Both of the above.

I would far more paranoid using bitcoin...

I've been tempted to go to this site:

http://zeltasgarden.com/

But then I slap myself, and say no dude you can just walk down the street.

Bitcoin is not anonymous, the dealers from the famous silk road should be worried.

Holy shit, what a topic.....

It's the most stupid topic I've ever read.

Lots of people (newspapers) are talking about pyramid schemes and drug money when referring to bitcoin that's just ridiculous.

Maybe some part of the bitcoin is used in illegal drugs, but so is USD's and EURO's and whatever other currency you favor.

87.654% of all statistics are just pulled out of thin air.

No, you come with this statistc if you are passionate SR user and cannot imagine what else the Bitcoin could be usefull for.
I have different problem, I would say no more than 1% Bitcoin trade is SR based because I have no idea how the SR works or how could be SR usefull to many people

Not true. Please look into it. Also I highly doubt that 90 % of BTC drug sales are marijuana because
a) cannabis you can get anywhere easily (almost)
b) cannabis is harder to disguise and hide and you need more of it by weight that most other drugs

Other drugs are also often a lot more profitable and they are interesting to buy online because many people just don't find good quality LSD, cocaine etc. where they live, if they find it at all.

Also you can see how much trading went on at Silk Road, it wasn't all that much compared to other things. Bitcoin didn't crash when the Silk Road was seized, remember? It barely had an effect.

Where are you getting these percentages from? Have you just made them up? You haven’t even factored in people who are holding their coins as an investment. There are also lots of businesses that are non-computer parts and selling shit to nerds etc and these are growing everyday.
