The article explains absolutely nothing.  Just a clickbait title, that's all.

When are we going to open the news paper and read that U.S. dollars are used for illegal goods? Most of them do have traces of cocaine after all...

People known to be killed over Bitcoin: 0

People killed over dollars: thousands per year.

People killed over gold: Untold millions throughout human history.

I saw in a little forum somewhere that we need Bitcoin. In fact, we need an advanced form of Bitcoin that allows us to trade and barter easily. The fiat currency systems will collapse on their own, without Bitcoin's help. We need an improved Bitcoin concept to fall back on. Bitcoin is simply the beginning.

Bitcoin (and cryptos in general) can free us from the chains of central banking. In that way it is the most dangerous currency in the world (to the powers that be).

The current bitcoin price fluctuations dangerous to trade those currencies. Maybe due to this reason, they made this statement.

This is not true. Distorting facts does not help the Bitcoin cause. DPR put hits on all sorts of people for bitcoins.

Saw the article/video on Coinbits this morning and was annoyed by it. Absolute trash.

Yeah, but none of them were killed and the 'hitman' was a Fed.

I think that a plausible reason that she rushed her research and got her facts wrong is that she appeared to look like she had just had a long and wild morning sex session.

Either way, the point is valid.

The amount of people killed because of Bitcoin stands at a handful, if it's even that.

Whereas people killed over fiat and other riches = millions.
