That is the really the good side of bitcoin.

Fiat money does not increase the price and that's the advantages of crypto currencies especially bitcoins. Because your $ 1 might be 3 $ a day, But it's also likely that it's falling but if you have a strategy you'll definitely make money here
I think people tend to use bitcoin because of it's large value.In addition to that bitcoin being decentralized and global is another reason for people to prefer bitcoin over fiat money. Since bitcoin is global a user can trade with a person in any country in the world. But if we do a transaction with fiat money that cost us a higher transaction fee and we have to act under the rules and regulation of that particular country . When it comes to bitcoin transaction fee is negligible.
It all depends on the individual who is having bitcoin in his wallet. Bitcoin can be used for any kind of activity for which you really want to use that bitcoin. However, it is not a good thing to use bitcoin for any kind of illegal activities and we all should discourage such kind of thing so that it may not affect the reputation of bitcoin. Bitcoin is really a good thing and we should try to make its better image in the society.

People nowdays are scared . because they do not believe to their goverment anymore. Bitcoin is very good and safe way to become indepeded in this case. Also anonimity is one of the reason whye people prefer bitcoin.
No offense meant but I beg to disagree on this one. While I am a Bitcoin investor, I do not subscribe to your supposition that it is easier to invest in Bitcoin than in fiat. In fact, it is the exact opposite. Even so, I still prefer investing in Bitcoin over fiat because my money in the former grows more than when merely invested in the latter. I am more concerned about the potential growth of my money rather than the degree of difficulty I have to go through along the way. Hence, it is not accurate to quantify the easiness of investing in Bitcoin. It is just downright impractical.
It is because bitcoin offers a good opportunity that will last longer and many the users satisfied to their everyday profit in bitcoin, also they think that it is more easy to invest in bitcoin rather than fiat.

Valid point. Bitcoin serves and offer many useful things what fiat cannot offer but people who don't know about it or against it would spread these small incidents also as if bitcoin is used mainly for wrong things as you mentioned. However, I agree that it is used for wrong things as well but the percentage of that is minimal like less than 1% compared to fiat. Do you ever thought how terrorists and other criminals exchange their currency before bitcoin exists? Currency in any form would be used for many purpose whether it is good or bad.

Bitcoins have no middlemen meaning bitcoins are decentralized. No government or country owns all the bitcoins. Bitcoins have little to no transaction fees compared to fiat money. Bitcoins are untraceable and hackers can not follow your bread crumbs making bitcoins unhackable.
