Last I have heard is that they are using Turkish dollars! $800 million worth of oil apparently they have sold to the Turks for the very nice price of - 50% under the current market value.
Now this is where ISIS is financed from and what they are really using and not Bitcoin!

If they really using bitcoins... it is a very bad news for bitcoin . as it will affect the users of it.. i just hope that the governments dont do anything bad in bitcoin.  well good luck to us. How is it bad news for bitcoin? It's just like saying that the terrorists are using the dollar, how is it effecting the dollar? and how is it effecting the users of bitcoin?

The cash is here so long and disallow to use cash would not get you much popularity because everyone use cash. Also it would surprise nobody if ISIS is using cash because it is normal - everyone uses cash. But Bitcoin is quite different, Bitcoin is not used by many and may be viewed by majority as a suspicious easily then, it might be like Jude situation in early twenties - we are still the same humans with the same fears. |

The way I see it, this situation can only be used against us if they want and need to shut us down no matter what. But I don't think this is the case. I mean look, no new statements, dust has settled down and I think that we keep over mentioning this and worrying about it too much! Nothing bad is going to happen to Bitcoin about this ISIS nonsense in my opinion! |

Maybe they are using bitcoin, but that is just not the main thing for them. I think the main thing is the oil.

Is this a bitcoin address for ISIS? Looks appropriate.

sure they will be using any mode of payment service, be it bitcoin or any other form of transaction that can really serve their purpose.

Of course they are using bitcoin! You think that it was just silkroaders that understand what anonymous money transactions can do. Think about it from a terrorist POV... they can pay people all over the world and basically be impossible to trace. In a world where we are waging cyber wars, it would take physical tracking to find out exactly where these terrorists coins come from in the end.
Although it really doesn't matter what currency they are using, lets focus on what's important and that is the activities these hatred fuel beings partake in... Also there is much interest in crushing crypto by certain groups of people in the world so don't buy into the idea that they push about how btc is used for bad things...

Distribution of services, which are being used by IS, should be similar to this of regular people. So they're using everything, including cash and some tiny amount of bitcoin, which is mostly used for online fundrasing.
