http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/04/bitcoin-hype/477141/Something strange is happening to Bitcoin. Once viewed as a way to do business in the darkest corners of the web, the digital currency has rather suddenly become a favorite talking point among humanitarians and international development enthusiasts.
Bitcoin isn’t just for illicit transactions or Internet hobbyists anymore, but for helping the poor, the downtrodden, and the unbanked.
Perhaps Bitcoin can save them! Perhaps Bitcoin can save the world!
Regardless of whether this attitude is realistic—and more on that in a minute—the people focused on demonstrating the social benefits of Bitcoin are challenging existing narratives about the cryptocurrency. While early commentary focused on how Bitcoin might be used to buy drugs online, or for sending money without a paper trail; the social-good argument suggests that these uses were simply the first use-cases in which Bitcoin’s utility became apparent. But there are billions of other potential use. There are, for example, people who face significant obstacles in operating within the formal banking system—and these folks look very different from the shadowy hackers that tend to be seen as the prototypical Bitcoin user. They could be low-wage migrant workers sending money back home to their families, for example, or activists receiving money from abroad during tumultuous times. Bitcoin can be used for good, Many people using a bitcoin become a good deed. And bitcoin it's useful become a global currency . but some people have a negative statement if bitcoin only linked with negative activity. Even though they do not know about various usefulness of bitcoin and negative or positive activity is relied on the people of intention.

Yes why not, some people already judge bitcoin as a bad cuurncy since there was rumor bitcoin is used for money laundry, it will be nice to hear some community raising fund using bitcoin to help people and it will bring positive reputation for bitcoin
Cash is used for money laundering way more than BitCoin... Just when it happens in BitCoin, the world goes crazy and jumps to conclusion.

Maybe for some people in government if they have a more knowledge about bitcoin, I certain there will be using bitcoin do money laundering.

I agree, bitcoin is also a money where you can buy what you want. If someone use it at illegal things like buying drugs then it is bad but if your using it in a good way then you don't have to matter everytime you use it to buy something.

It's the media that is always trying to make Bitcoin look bad. If a person gets extorted for a few Bitcoins, worth a few $K, then the media act like the whole world is about to collapse. If the same thing happens with fiat, then it doesn't even reach the media as they don't see it as being worthy to cover. It's crazy!

Nothing for now, for few days I see a lot of media give a good response for bitcoin because some legal institution or we called it bank is starting to adopt blockchain system.

We know it could be use for good because many have profited from it. How about the bad side. Payment for illegal drugs or illegal guns. Syndicates transacting using this method. It is easy and they wont trace it that easy also. I can send 1 BTC per transaction and it will cost a little, then I send more 1 BTC so that nobody will care so much.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip. Whales are those who keep buying the dip.
