"You can buy anything with Bitcoin" this is what make me keep thinking. Yes of course you can buy anything you want with Bitcoin, but it's not that easy tho.

Mining will give you viruses

That's funny wrong info many people tried to spread it since few years ago, but i think very little of ignorant people still think that it's true
I think it was true mate. many of the wallet application or applications altcoin. and miner apps who insert viruses and malware into it. after you installed so the hackers can retrieve all the data and passwords from your computer. I've heard it's real

the fact that I heard and that does not come true is that bitcoin is very difficult to use, I guess that's not true. bitcoin very easy to use but for people who are quick to give up is not going to be able to use bitcoin

Bitcoin is Illegal.
Well it is illegal but only in a few countries.

Bitcoin is anonymous.
But I could see other people doing transactions. Cheesy

Well some of these countries are bringing back bitcoin. They should be intelligent enough to go with this decision.

Bitcoin is pseudo-anonymous as you can trace the transaction but cannot know the owner of the address unless he mentions it somewhere.

i have heard few people saying that because of the time taken for transaction is too long, this might be the end of this digital currency. This is wrong.

In fact, this deficiency will be overcome by the bitcoin miners and it will stay forever.

Yeah, that info is spread that mining and their softwares will install a virus in your PC and will attack on your all accounts and data, which is completely false. But I am thinking that why people spread rumors like that.

No way. There is no link of virus and mining.
Minning is a mathematical calculation done by the high speed hardwares and there is no risk of virus in it.

Now its really not possible to buy anything with bitcoin. After conversion to fiat anything can be bought. Now small acceptance in store is found which will increase in the future.

Confirmation times can be really long like few hours for 6 confirmations, but it is time for final settlement which takes credit cards months (during that time the payment can be reversed). 0 confirmation Bitcoin transactions take few seconds to propagate and shown in your wallet, and I never had problem 0 confirmation transaction to not confirm later, so the Bitcoin transactions taking only few seconds actually

When I started using Bitcoin, I thought Bitcoin transactions cannot be traced. I believe this was what I read from a few Bitcoin related site back in 2012/2013.

As I get to know more and more about Bitcoin, I found out that it is not true. Technically, it can be traced from the Blockchain. Ones need to use a Bitcoin mixer before he/she can be "anonymous".

What "facts" have you heard about Bitcoin that is not true - other than the price?

Yeah, transactions in themselves can be traced.

The anonymity of bitcoin isn't in the impossibility of tracking transactions, but in the difficulty of linking those transactions and the identity of one's user.

All tx are public (ledger) but who really own "in the real life" a certain btc could be impossible some time to obtain... Anyone know who own 50 btc from block 1 or 2 Cheesy ? But tx / mining arguments are already tracked...

you can see transactions, but there no no real user identities attached in the transactions in the blockchain. thus bitcoin is pseudo-anonymous.

The fact I heard about bitcoin is when people say you can earn a lot from bitcoin.

But I realize that I cannot earn a lot from it when it comes to services and goods to offer because I don't have something to offer.

Most peoples said that bitcoin is a currency for such illegal activity, buying drugs, weapons or something like that, they might be true, but i think not only bitcoin can do that, fiat can do that also. It's obviously depend on user, how did they spent their bitcoin wheter for legall activity or ilegall activity, thus i must say this case is not true
