On March 8th, Cheollima Civil Defense(CCD) released a video on its website claiming:” Han Sol, the son of Kim Jong Nam, and two other family members were met quickly and relocated to safety. “ And they receive bitcoin for financial support. This is something nice to do. BUt what if bitcoin be used to support some bad organizations, even terrorists? Is this already happening? What i am worrying is if bitcoin be widely used for bad things, negative news would be all over and bitcoin price will drop. It will lead to tougher regulation. Do u think world leaders are willing to kill btc to make sure they can fight terrirists?
There are no restriction in bitcoin , everyone is highly suitable to join , use and earn bitcoin. It is the user or to the bitcoiner the decision on whether to use it, even for the bad or for the good of him or everyone.
Is this true? I think it is still not certain. But there is a possibility that they will use these bitcoin to send them because bitcoin can be sent not knowing who sent it and what will be doing with it, even who is the reciever of it. Even in my newbie days here I am also thinking that these can be done by people, though I don't think that it can be really used these efficiently by these terrorist. With these, terrorist can convert bitcoin and earn money, buy guns and other things that they can use to overthrow the government and hurt the people under it, that is really miserable.

throwing in random names doesn't make the story more believable
and no, I assure you that there is no idiot in the whole world that is going to choose bitcoin (with 100% public, open to the whole world transactions) over easy fiat/cash such as using USD which is 100% anonymous, non-traceable and acceptable everywhere in the whole world.
p.s. your username seems to be matching the kind of topics you create in this forum.
Even cash USD, while having separate purposes to Bitcoin, isn't 100% anonymous. Also, if you think that USD is accepted everywhere, you're pretty arrogant about how national currencies work.

We cannot control others on how they will use bitcoin just like we cannot control people on how to use fiat. Since bitcoin itself has its value, this type of usage is inevitable. Since you asked if bitcoin is used to support terrorist or any bad organization, I will tell you that nothing will change. Did anyone asked "what if they use fiat to do bad?", obviously fiat and bitcoin are the same at some point but no one questions the usage of fiat as far as I know.

so why are you asking if this is already happening? Isn't obvious that it is already happening?
It is easier to track Bitcoins than it is to track cash.

Yes it is that is why we have Bitcoin mixing services. Trackibility will not discourage the criminals from using it as their preferred way to do transactions. Try dealing in the dark markets. Bitcoin is reaching new heights by operating outside the jurisdiction of regulatory bodies.

So what? They didn't mention that North Korea had or still has secret factories where they manufacture Superdollars, a very high quality counterfeit United States one hundred-dollar bills?According to witnesses factory where the notes are printed is located in the city of Pyongsong and is part of Division 39. They printed hundreds of millions, if not more of these banknotes.
So this is not a huge problem, but when North Korean government have access to bitcoin it suddenly becomes national threat? What kind of hypocrisy is this?

As scary as it is, Bitcoin can be used to any way and that of course, can be a good or bad act. It just only depends on the owner of it. The president of US can buy bitcoin and it's also the same with the criminal groups. They can also buy BTC and use it for terrorism. I think this is one of the reasons why the government wants to control the flow of BTC in certain countries.
the technologist, miners, traders .....of bit coin are human, the terrorists are also human. Bit coin can be manipulated as long as it is in humans control to suit whichever purpose.it can be used to support terrorism.

NO, of course bitcoin wouldn't support such thing like terrorist, but since anyone could use bitcoin, then terrorist might use it in their dark plan purposes. And Yes, this might already happening, but we just don't know about it because you know, terrorist act silently but deadly, that is why it is banned on some countries which do have many terrorist, their government is just preventing terrorist to use the advantage of bitcoin on this illegal stuffs.
Everyone can hold his own bitcoin even criminals can obtain his own bitcoin the question here would be if the police can do something about it? which is very hard to do really! transaction over bitcoin will always be anonymous regarding this that is why I think that is the best question regarding some transaction of identify for illegal business, I think bitcoin is not the reason behind, something like this, the real culprit would be the person itself he can surely done anything with his bitcoin.
Nothing is impossible, bitcoin is a tool and remains man himself decisive.
Bitcoin is anonymous, and allows anyone or any party to use it for good things or bad things like terrorism.

They are already using fiat for their financial needs. Bitcoin does not directly enable them to do more.
It could make certain transactions easier though, but the same goes for any new technology. Bad people can always use it for their purposes as well. Does this mean we should stop technology development?
Here comes the question: if bitcoin be used for evil purposes, will we be able to stop them? And who will lead the effort to stop them?It could make certain transactions easier though, but the same goes for any new technology. Bad people can always use it for their purposes as well. Does this mean we should stop technology development?
If fiat is used for evil purposes, will we be able to stop them? And who will lead the effort to stop them?
Same question, with the same answer. Law enforcement will lead the offort to stop them, sometimes we may be able to stop them, sometimes we cannot.
Fiat is still the biggest currency for illegal transactions. That something CAN be used for something does not mean that that is the only thing that it can be used for.
Bitcoin makes it easier for them to move value on the internet. Ask yourself, would the dark markets be possible if fiat was used to transact in them? The answer is clearly no. Bitcoin is a god send for criminals.
Not that it will be but it already has been used for supporting terrorism, unfortunately. Terrorist are also closely watching new technologies that could help them in their activities and Bitcoin was ideal because of the anonimity and it was hard to determine the source of funding. Unfortunately we can't escape Bitcoin beeing used for illegal stuff.
We really don’t control bitcoin so we don’t know for what bitcoin is being used. Bitcoin had been funding illegal transactions for quite long. Bitcoin had been used for money laundering across many countries. So, bitcoin have seen dirty money as well.
I won’t be surprised if terror outfits use bitcoin for their transactions. Because the structure of bitcoin is designed that way. While it has all the transaction records maintained in a public ledger, but unless and until you know the account name, you can’t say what belong to whom.

Anything can be used for anything, bitcoin, fiat, vouchers and so on the news is always done in a way that hides the fact that as well as bitcoin numerous dollars have been used for the very same thing.
