If there is no bitcoin, they can use fiat cash. It is not the fault of bitcoin. I don't think EU Prosecutors are against bitcoin. No while ago, many EU banks can let the customers to buy bitcoin through their bank accounts.

i guess you will be able to buy BTC at the ATMs or in the bank too. could take some years.

I know how they can combat them: legalise drugs. Problem solved. If people want drugs they should be able to buy them.

Since they can't do anything about real crime, they might as well go after imaginary crime.

I hope they get rid of all these crime rackets it gives bitcoin a bad name.
