Well of course. Illegal activities started out with USD and then moved over to online money.

Let's generalize it that all money/currency or cryptocurrencies can be used in a legal or illegal way. It is really up to the people on how will they use it but as we know illegal is still illegal no matter where you look at it is very wrong and pose risk it may in theirselves or to others.

I see more and more articles of the USD being used for illegal activities, such as funding of terrorists and unconstitutional, illegal wars, funding of wars that cause severe infringement of civil liberties like the war on drugs, among other things. I am pretty sure that when goons smash into convenience stores and steal stuff, then the money they probably steal is USD, which makes it criminal currency. Also, I am pretty sure that the baseball bats that majority of the goons have bought were paid for by the USD. Also, most people collect rain water, drink raw milk, and throw cannabis seeds in soil, all three acts which are considered serious illegal felonies punishable by seriously expensive fines and extensive jail time, possibly life in prison. Some people also walk, drive, fish, or hunt without a permit that can easily be bought for in USD. Will this hurt USD in the long run? Will governments ban this just like they started to do with paying in cash for some services to harden the use of illegal activities, and money laundering? Well as I said with a the same question with bitcoin, you can't blame a currency for it being used for illegal activities. What people do is entirely their own choice and the government cannot control that. You can't blame the government when people use USD or CNY for buying drugs, that's only because their status as a currency is confirmed and undisputed. Same with bitcoin, when people use bitcoin to buy goods that are illegal people should blame bitcoin for the incident. It only means that bitcoin is a good way to store people's wealth, and even the drug dealers agree with that, and they are very particular about their money

Every currency is being used for illegal activites, so it is not strange at all that also bitcoin is being used for such a purpose.
Indeed, even the fiat is use in illegal matter. And yes bitcoin is use in illegal, most are those big whales out there. Like gambling things and trading illegal items purchasing those illegal and pay them back with bitcoin. Every currency is being used in legal and illegal activities.

Yes, USD is be used for illegal activities and it is not USD only all of fiat money being used for illegal activities, for example there are many issues about money laundering, it happen on fiat currency not on bitcoin, i don't see issues about money laundering in bitcoin although bitcoin can be used for money laundering with bitcoin mixing service.
because bitcoin anonymous and decentralized so you will not know if the criminals are also using bitcoin to launder their money. they are hidden because aid bitcoin You can't tell if criminals are using bitcoin to do their illegal activities. But in fact, lets accept that even we know or not, they are already using bitcoin to do their illegal activities because bitcoin is anonymous and they can use it to do illegal transaction because the authorities can't track them down. Bitcoin and USD are both same that being used in illegal activities and we should know that. He said based on some of the advantages of bitcoin which really helped for the criminal. Every currency will ever be used by the criminal for doing an illegal activity. Fiat currency is still being the number one about the illegal activities. Because it easy for use and you can use them anywhere. It's not bitcoin fault. Yes, it is being used by many for money laundering. In fact according to a study it is the main currency used for illegal activities around the word. But we cannot say such things about the bitcoin because of it safe and secure while publicly dealing. Any illegal activities cannot be done through a bank account and bitcoin uses a bank account for the withdrawal of money.

To buy things we need money. It doesn't matter whether it is gold, shoes, chocolate, or bomb and a missile!! The thing is everywhere legal and illegal things are happening, it is not just USD it is every currency belonging to each country is used as required. So I believe it is not very specific and it is unpredictable which one is having more traffic

Every currency in.the world is beeing used for illegal activities. How do you think that money laundering or selling drugs or weapons is happening? But that doesn't mean that the currencies should be marked as bad, criminal thing. And it's natural that most valuable and most liquid world currencis like Euro and US dollar are most popular for criminal activities also.
Yes it's true not only USD but every currency in the world is being used for illegal activities because some people more likely to do illegal activities because they believe they can more make money than doing some right activities.

That's true but sometimes there is a people or institution which the party have always been blaming the bitcoin about this. Their main concern is about the pseudonimuos of bitcoin itself. That's really wrong in my mind. Average currency can be used for the illegal activities and exceptionally for the fiat.

Since USD is what of the most preferred currency and many are wanting to earn that currency, no doubt that it is being used for illegal activities just like our local currencies.

Euro is more suitable than USD for illegal activities. Since there are 500euro papers which hold a lotmore value than 100$. To answer your question, of course it is being used for illegal activities. It doesn't make USD guilty. USD is the most common currency around the world, thw most liquid... That's why terrorists choose USD over everything else.
Terrorists can use any currency for illegal activities. It may be be USD, EURO, Pound or even Bitcoins. So what matters most is that system which may caught such activities and most of the under developed countries do not have such a system as yet. Every currency in each country can be used for illegal activities not only usd of course. And many people also can do any such illegal things whatever country they're belong as long as they can use it. And this can only be stop if each of the nations will give a any by laws about this matter.

Any things that are of great value can be used for illegal purposes, not just money. Bitcoin is much easier to use because it is anonymous.

It's a bias question that USD is the only considered currency that is being used for illegal activities. But the reality is that all currencies are being used for illegal activities because money makes the world go round and criminals need money and there's a lot of ways to exchange it with your local currency.

The type of currency is rather irrelevant. Anything that has widespread value can be used to fund illegal activities, and more, should be expected to be doing so. USD, Euro, Yen, btc, gold, diamonds, drugs, etc. The medium is fungible, criminals will be criminals. The currency doesn't make them so.
