Anything that involves stealing is illegal in any way. Its better to pay the electricity you consumed on your mining than to steals neihboors electricity, just think that they would suffer big current bill because of you which is really not good what if it happens to you? you would know the feeling of being cheated by anyone. You might kill them if you knew what they are doing That's right friends, all forms of theft is illegal and the state also set about it to me of course, I do not want to be cheated, with it so I tried not to cheat others. I think Bitcoin is being used for illegal activities. USD and every currency is used for illegal activities too. The problem is that BTC is harder to catch.
Absolutely right, and therefore if each currency can be used for illegal activities why blame bitcoin, because that wrong was not the money but the person. Perhaps it is their people who from the beginning was not like bitcoin.

I see more and more acrticles of bitcoin being used for illegal activities will this hurt bitcoin in the long run , will governments ban this just like they started to do wih paying in cash for some services to harden the use of illegal , and money laundering
That doesn't really make sense. If i used normal money to buy drugs or guns, I'm pretty sure that that that currency would be banned. It's not the currency's fault, it's the consumer's. You shouldn't blame bitcoin for the illegal activities that people participate in.

Perhaps it is their people who from the beginning was not like bitcoin. Thou shall not steal and its one of the 10 commandments. So stealing to anyone its not good, Dont do unto others what you dont want others do unto you. Sorry for mentioning biblical things but this things are the most important to remember in our lifes. Just my opinion.

It is and can be used just like any other currency. If the one using it has malicious intent then that is what it will be involved in. Bitcoin is not any different then any other currency around the world.

Many people now they use bitcoin in illegal activies like here in philippines many filipino using bitcoin to scam people for a small amount of monet they get dazzled to scam it. That is the time i started using bitcoin in our country they called it online paluwagan they used bitcoin for there transaction after payment they get activated in there facebook.
Filipinos? Be careful with whom you blame. You are telling it as if the whole people in this country are scammers. It will still depend on the person. Even if you are an American or German you can scam if you have a devil intent.

Whatever type of payment whether its fiat currency, bitcoin, or any other form like gold, silver or diamonds, criminals or people doing illegal activities will use it in order to get what they wanted or to get paid. The difference of bitcoin is that people can use it for payment with anonymity making it an advantage for them because they can’t be traced by the authorities easily. There are no documents needed when someone wanted to transact bitcoin so authorities will not be able to retrieve evidence to put down the people doing illegal activities. Transaction fees are also minimal when using it making it preferable because the more funds available to them then the more transaction they can make which means more profit. So to answer the question, yes bitcoin is use in illegal activities.

Lots of people in the world are scammers in any country and in any place. Yes i do agree it all depends on a person on what his/her intent even if his american,indian,malaysian or any other nationalities. Scammers are verywhere any part of the globe.

No doubt about that, since we consider bitcoin as money, then we can use it to pay someone.. But, I don't consider gambling as illegal.. There are gambling sites who operates but still following the local laws.. I just don't know about online gambling sites, I don't know if they really have permits and are really paying taxes, I read sometimes in a local news paper here in the Philippines, that there are online gambling sites operated by foreigners, some were sometimes raided by the police as it is illegal..

I don't think this will get bitcoin banned because there is no currency which is not used for iillegal activities I also don't think that bitcoin will gonna ban due to these scammers and illegal activities that people do or done in bitcoin. People scam other people and get there all money but it will not affect or lead to the banning of bitcoin. Yes if bitcoin challenge the state or illegal activities happens in a state level like black money or other things that are illegal in any state then it would be ban.

Every currency is used for illegal and legal purposes. Its the people who and for what purposes they use it. As BTC is a digital currency and can be transfered anywhere without the knowledge of anyone else, it has much chance to use for illegal activities.

You mean bitcion being anonymous. There is still information but not a lot is needed. But at this way also it is limited to send money. The sending limit will be according to how much information you would give.

yes and that is even possible in every currency either is it crypto currency or fiat one. i think in every society and in every type of currency there will be illegal activities. so we cannot only blame bitcoin. i think the most usable currency for illegal activities will be USD that is the most popular currency of the world.

We too use BTC we should be aware, weather we are using it for good which benefit us or in a bad way which is destroying us

That reason alone should be enough to answer the question of bitcoin also in involving illegal activities as it has been nothing new to any currency or payment processor in the history of financial world.

Yes exactly. Bitcoin has valued so no doubt it can be used on whatever type of money transaction that other financial or currency involved to. Whether for legal or illegal it's not new to heard. It's up for a person if they will use this currency on whatever purpose they want.
