It is definitely not fake news, one of the attractive features of bitcoins is the anonymity.

yes there is no doubt about the anonymity of bitcoin, but how can a person about the exact percentage of bitcoin users who are using bitcoin for illegal activities, as bitcoin  is anonymous. i think that is just a fake new and there is no reality about in this news.

as i have no clear idea about this, but i think these will be true news. as america is an advanced country and their thieves may also be too advance that they will use bitcoin for stealing purposes, therefore to me this will not be a fake news and the thieves my really be using bitcoin for their illegal activities.

Bitcoin anonymous? It's easier to hide you on PayPal rather than cleaning Bitcoin cash, trust me. Considering that Bitcoin transactions can always be linked.

[Muhammad Zain]

yes it is possible as bitcoin is anonymous therefore they will be getting benefit from it and will be using bitcoin for their wrong activities.

no i am not agree with you, bitcoin is anonymous and that is its beauty, i dont think that its transaction may have some hidden link, if it is so then why those countries where bitcoin is illegal government take action against these accounts.

[Universat]

that may be true because to me all kind of currencies should be use for illegal activities and may be the bitcoin also, but it is not the fault of bitcoin i think the local police are responsible to stop such kind of illegal activities, because if they are not using bitcoin then they will find any other source but they will continue their illegal activities.

[groll]

Just another click bait! 

Giving my opinion on your topic, yes it is possible especially that bitcoin is more safer for people who are into illegal activities.  Bitcoin does not exposes or include the names everytime there was a transactions.  So it is easy, safe, and much more comfortable for people with illegal activities to use bitcoin as their mode of payments. 

Identity theft which could be, using other people's name to hide their real identity is possible. 

[Xester]

That is for sure.  Bad people especially those who wants to be rich would do anything just to have many money and have a luxurious life.  And it applies to anything not just bitcoin.  Although it is much more easier for them to do illegal activities since bitcoin is hassle free and really good in concealing your identity.

i believe there is still more people that will be a good person and not thief and do illegal activity. maybe in out there, bitcoin is used for illegal activities but i am sure that its more positive activities that people do while they use bitcoin.

and for the link, its only 10% americans not all americans, so this will not be the same, and i still believe that many people will using bitcoin for good purpose which is to make money.

yes i am also agree with you and there is no doubt this, as using bitcoin can give me a benefit that they will remain anonymous and will not declose to any one, therefore i think bitcoin is the best option with them to use,

10% I doubt that, i think more percentage are using bitcoin for avoiding identity expose. I personally use bitcoin because it avoids me more spam mails into my inbox. Anonymity is the biggest plus of bitcoin.

[KabaaL]

here in our area we have no tax on silver or gold while buying or selling in open market. therefore i do not think that there will be any tax on silver or gold while buying it in bitcoin. and may be the govt impose tax in future.

wich area please? !

[hope4u]

yes it is possible that some american may be using bitcoin to ignore identity theft. because bitcoin is anonymous.

[Superbitzz]

yes as bitcoin is anyonymous therefore there is much possibility of using it for some illegal activities, but i think every currency my be use for such kind of activities and i think it is very very difficult to stop suck kind of activities.

yes i also think so that more than 10% people will be using  bitcoin to avoid their identity, but i think its ratio will be different from place to place depending on the interest of the people.

[youhgt2]

yes it may be fact, because bitcoin is the only currency that is anonymous as no one know who has it ans ho much one has it and from where one is, so it is the best advantage for them to use bitcoin to hide their identity.

yes that is right and i think not only bitcoin but almost every other currency can be se for illegal activities but bitcoin is special and the reason is that is an anonymous currency.
