The misuse of bitcoin cannot be controlled because it is decentralized and it cannot be easily tracked because of its anonymity and that's why people who have the urge to do these illegal, acts use bitcoin.
because bitcoin is more convenient than fiat money. you dont have to bring a huge amount of money to buy or pay bills, you can easily paid it by using your bitcoin wallet, you can also withdraw anytime and anywhere. as long as you have your balance of course.
Because it is more convenient than fiat and has many benefits. Digital coins could br flexible in the future since in that time there will be digital revolution and bitcoin is one of it. So therefore bitcoin will prefer over fiat
Finland financial institutions praise the concept of blockchain which was conceptualized first by bitcoin. Many investors are loving the concept of being not regulated by the government and can be use by anyone and in anywhere as long as there is some internet connections.

People prefer to use Bitcoin because of different advantages... Something that makes Bitcoin very atractive is the fact that Fiat currency is a terrible store of value. Another aspect is that Bitcoin allows to do things that are not possible with fiat. You even mentioned one of them: gambling.
Despite being legal in many countries, gambling is illegal in others, something that makes Bitcoin one of the few options.

Just because paying with bitcoin is quiet easy, you don't have to give away your credit card details while making payment so no way of getting scammed.
It's faster better and easier. You can make transactions take less then an hour anywhere in the world and you don't even have to give personal details away or have any bank account linked. Noone has to know what you doing or buying just like when you is cash noone can tell where that cash was last. I like the whole idea of Bitcoin and virtual payments.
It s abuse for bitcoin .Bitcoin most popular and used coin now.We are every thing have two part 1.good 2. Bad.if anyone deside and choise bad thing its totally fault who abuse this.Now bitcoin is most expensive and highly coin.So many porn site and gambling and drug dealing are used to bitcoin there transaction .i think it is a not fault for bitcoin.If everybody awearness for this topic and try to use bitcoin proper its not happen any more but its really shamed for who abuse this bitcoin.
When people talk about Bitcoin price, they usually refer to its price expressed in dollars. I really don't understand why...
US Dollar is going down in price, US economy is collapsing. There are many other countries which has more Bitcoin users, like Russia, China, Japan, Philippines and the whole Eurozone. Even ICOs are forbidden in the USA. It's not a so Bitcoin-friendly country, its national currency is not so strong. So why price Bitcoin in $?
There could be many other more appropriate currencies like EUR, CNY or RUB...
You can convert it to your favorite fiat currency though but i think the value will remain the same when you change it to your local currency. Because all prices in USD has it's equivalent in Euro too or you can convert or compute it to much would it be in your local money. US Dollar is going down in price, US economy is collapsing.

Bitcoin is being used widely in porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Is that why the btc made for ? I have seen a lot of members in this forum discussing about buying drugs, gambling and enjoying porn with bitcoin. Is not it a misuse of a currency ? Block chain tech is a awesome tech and btc is getting popular. I hate these misuses of precious btc. It hurts me. This will lead into unhealthy society along with unhealthy future generation.
There are lot of reason why they prefer to use bitcoin over fiat. I think they prefer to choose bitcoin than fiat because of the price and bitcoin doesn't have value and as of now the price of bitcoin become more expensive while fiat already have exact price or value. Bitcoin is decentralized unlike fiat. Some people prefer bitcoin over fiat because on some places bitcoin is tax free. I guess it's not bad to use bitcoin for something as long as you're not breaking any law/rules from your place. There's much more misuses of btc but if we continue this discussion it's getting kinda off topic when the title is about bitcoin and fiat.
We could not hide the fact the most of people prefer to evade taxes in order for them to earn more and to be more free in terms of transaction. Yet this is also a part of innovation a part on transations and development through trading and investment that could give people an opportunity to earn.

Those you have stated are not the main reasons why bitcoin was created and established. In fact, bitcoin has been the innovated version of bitcoin since it was made and operated into online usage. The difference is just that it was a virtual money but the main use of it was just like using fiat in real situation. Those you have stated are made and depending on how they want to use bitcoin. It is just bitcoin has been blamed because it made transactions fast and the price rate is enabling many people to buy their needs and wants without restriction

Most of the people who uses bitcoins don't know the value of a good thing when they see it. Since OP made this post, the value of Bitcoin has multiplied exponentially and am very certain that those people who used their bitcoins for buying and and subscribing to porn are regretting it now . When it comes to gambling i disagree because most gamblers make money whiles gambling so i see nothing wrong with it there compared to the others.
There is a lot of reasons making many people prefering Bitcoin over fiat. Bitcoin is a decentralized currency, easy to use, and anonymous, this features make it the preferable payment method for so many people because fiat is not so. Also bitcoin is an asset and its price is increasing highly , while fiat's price is almost stable.

I feel you but there is nothing much we can do about it. Bitcoin is an asset, like money possessed by you, nobody can dictate you on what you should do with your money. Same with bitcoin. No one can rule over you on where you should spend or put your bitcoins.
I preffer Bitcoin because of its public ledger. I dont like the idea to trust in systems like fiat which I cant verify - and even if I have to trust central bank reports, they create way too much out of nothing with their quantitative easing buying bonds (and maybe Bitcoin in the future).
Among other reasons, and I think why bitcoin shines, is the fact that it is not regulated by government agencies.
It is because it is decentralized and all, the fiat economy is very different from the cryptos even if the governments also have digital currency (through credit cards). The reason why government can't get their hands on the Cryptos is because it is too difficult for them to crack it.Quote
There is freedom of its use among its holders.. Whether it be used for bad or good, it is fine.. because after all, even fiat money are being used for either good or bad transactions as well.
It is because it was made to be used freely, that is mainly the whole concept of Bitcoin all in all. No matter how you use it, you're master of what you wanted to do with it. Its not like the Fiats where so many questions will be asked if you wanted to use large amounts of it in just one go. Some people prefer bitcoin because it is not just a fiat that you can use for many transaction but also a sort of having an investment in your pocket. Bitcoin is very safe to use and also very fast its like a credit card. Nowadays bitcoin value continue to appreciate that's why if you are holding your coins few months ago maybe you are enjoying the harvest of it.
Fiat can only be used for transaction purposes and the bitcoin purposes are much more than transaction. It is also as you say a business and investment in coin business. As one buys something else to sell it out to others and earn some money, the same is bitcoin the peoplewho have bought it on low price, now they have a lot of earnings if they sell their bitcoin in this day. This is a sound currency business.Among other reasons, and I think why bitcoin shines, is the fact that it is not regulated by government agencies. There is freedom of its use among its holders..
