I haven't red a news stating that they did used bitcoin since you said fact, could you post the link? ... If they really do, then it's going to have a big negative impact on the image of BTCitcoin however I doubt it could ruin BTCitcoin itself... Although what their doing is cruel, there were some other criminal activities in the past that used also BTCitcoin and the situation at the moment, speaks for itself

Update:
Just saw a thread on bitcoin discussion board with a picture regarding it

[Swordsoffreedom]

No, the argument has been used countless times, the MOST USED Currency to finance terrorism has always been the US dollar for decades.
That does not mean that the US Dollar is a Terrorist currency, just as much as Bitcoin can be used by anyone, the FIAT/Crypto that is used to exchange funds is not at fault what we blame is how it is used and that is what people should be concerned and correlate it to.

The question is if people will bother to skim beneath the surface and look at the currency from a more balanced viewpoint.

well more and more new series that come out puts bitcoin in a bad daylight now doing dammage to the coin ..
why shouldn't they use bitcoin?
and do they?
for long they use dollar and euro
maybe you're tapping faucets run by them without knowing
maybe you're investing in cloudmining services run by them
maybe ... and list goes on.

so who knows...?
hopefully when anonymous declared war on isis, the'll find it and puts it on display to be seen by everyone

[Amph]

they must buy first, this mean that they will help the market , unless they want to dump at lower price, which is stupid

and i doubt they are mining...

[Xeelee]

I don't think so. Imagine the following:
Most of the drug dealers using Dollar for payment. Is this a reason for any problems there?

Actually in some of the places ISIS control they do tend to run the utilities as well as all the other services, that said I'm not sure if a Geographic flag would show up where a Bitcoin miner is minting coins if you join a mining pool so that would be speculation on my part.
It is an interesting question.

[btckold24]

all criminals since the beginning of time have used some sort of money and it never hurt the currency. I can't imagine if they used Euros people would immediately change their euros to dollars etc

[Lucas*]

No!
ISIS and the other terrorists groups are paying its members with bitcoin? Of course not, they are using USD to pay them.
Now could the fact that ISIS use USD ruin USD?

[a7mos]

If they use bitcoin so their transactions could be traced and get arrested .

this advantage is not in normal money

not with washing it trough bitmixer and alike


don't worry, they are a group of organised people who studied crafts of everything
they plan to build their own state and for that you need more than experts on cellphones and push buttons

[anonymousx]

It doesn't mean a thing, they are trying to ruin the rep but it will just make bitcoin more known, more strong.

[Mickeyb]

If the regulators search for any reason whatsoever just to ban us then yes. If the regulators and governments are using their brains and don't have any evil intentions then they are realizing that this is pure sensationalism!

As someone said, they need to ban US dollar first then!

doesn't make sence
islam and their praticioners never invented a thing, the only thing they did in their whole history is to adopt technology to adapt it so they can use it against others, for their own gain or to reach their goal.

so if they destroy the rep of bitcoin so it won't be used they are nothing with it and therefor useless for them.

and that is actually not a bad idea
if you can't freeze their money and assets, you know which  they use, band that type of money and make a new one so they are left with useles stacks of paper in their tunneled mountains and numbers on their bankaccounts

[Lituation]

No, that's a stupid question. I think you opened this thread just to get attention. The answer is obvious, users have nothing to do with any currency, whether it's Bitcoin, dollar, yuan or pound, even cigarettes.
Ban Bitcoin. Why? ISIS use it.
Ban cigarettes. Why? Convicts use it.
Ban dollar. Why? Every criminal in the world use it.
Same failed logic.

This, no one should stop using btc because the terrorists are using it, like I said in other post, they use all kinds of currency, and btc can be traceable.

it must ne a small mining facility because it does not show up even among the biggest pool out there

they earning is very small if this is true

[~Bitcoin~]

I haven't heard like that till now but if it comes to be true, i don't think anybody can shutdown whole bitcoin network like they have done to liberty reserve on past as the every computer save bitcoin ledger.

[HostSurf]

I don't know why it sould ruin Bitcoin.

But yeah maybe. But that is just scary with this ISIS stuff :/
