ISIS might be using Bitcoin but probably aren't for the same reasons most of the rest of the world isn't. Too volatile too hard to exchange too open to hacker theft... Which, if they prove and show the address, would pretty much mean "open season" for those millions. If someone can hack them and steal those coins it would be welcomed by the rest of us!
Very true... I see Anonymous {The Hacker group} already declared WAR on ISIS and they targeted Twitter accounts, used for communication. You could just imagine if they got hold of a Bitcoin addresses used for terrorism funding. They would create havoc and you would see ISIS soldiers running around with air pistols and knives. Bitcoin is definitely not the safest and most secure method of payment, when you use it in the wrong way. ... I would actually prefer them not using it, but if they want to use it, they should suffer the consequences when it gets hacked.

They might be using bitcoin but since bitcoin is anonymous, you can't really track them down
Unless of course you're part of Anonymous, yes they did indeed already declared war with ISIS
So they might be able to hack ISIS and rek their funds

Well yeah. The CIA has to give money to ISIS somehow.
But no, I would imagine those reports are pretty exaggerated. I've never been to Syria or Iraq, but I'm assuming it's a little difficult to cash bitcoin out there.

I hope not. But if so I don't think they earn so much with BTC.
Oil is the main think for them.

I think this would be a terrible thing for Bitcoin if it is true. They say all press is good press but I don't think it is actually good when ISIS is associated with it.

Even if theyre not using btc for some of their transaction, it is inevitable for bitcoin not being use in illegal transactions because of its anonymity.

They are using it as a currency, like other terrorist groups use the dollar etc.

I remember them doing the same thing vs the Mexican drug cartel but had to stop because their members were getting decapitated.

Yes there i a probability they using it. In fact they are using all types of currencies depending on their location. does that mean that the currencies are bad? of course no it is just a channel of exchanging value that can be used by every one. The media should just be creative enough and come up with other better stories if they want it to sell. Bitcoin is going to do wonders in our generation and it is here to stay no matter what the critics say. My answer is yes

Having extreme belief in a religion does not make them stupid. You should not underestimate your enemy. Anyone use Cash, anyone use BTC. Not that it matters anyways. Money is like food, or a car, it does not matter who use it. People should do better things with their time than point fingers at silly things.

Beside the moronic things that come from having extreme beliefs, they can still understand and use and create technology like any others. Every group has geniuses, the problem is here they use their intelligence to terrorize people.

Dumbass, The German had more invention breakthroughs than any countries in the world while under Hitler's belief. However i already see the mountain of idiots from the Western countries already just from the recent social media outburst about the Paris attack.
