Is USD being used for illegal activities?

[weblouartisan]

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?

Yes of course, dollars today are used for drug laundering and even buying weapons legally and illegally so bitcoins should not be banned because of the issue that it is used for crimes. Usd is also a currency and they are just the same as bitcoins so they should not ban cryptocurrency because it is helping other people to cover up their expenses.

i think it's very possible, teroris have highest technology to mixing his money at bank without any trail, and untraceble.
i think people can buy anything use usd, the illegal activity with usd is very possible

goverment must ban any illegal activity, he must freeze the bank account of terorism

Indeed. The sad truth is that not just USD was being used for illegal types of activities but also others currencies that were circulating around each nation was also used by those individuals to cope up with their vices which relates usage of drugs and other activities such as terrorism. It is a real thing that people nowadays are getting into the government nerves because they are now abusing their free will and causing a real damage not just for other people but also for the economy. It is really in need that these actions must be put into a contrary action so that negative activities will be abducted.

Oh i don't think so but i have see some people in deepweb that using bitcoin dor illegal activities. Like drug and illegal experiment

[EnricoGomez]

All currencies, not just USD or literally anything of value and even bitcoin, is used for illegal activities - it is inevitable. I do not think it will affect USD as many currencies are used as well, it became natural.
We can only depend on the government and authorities on implementing effective laws and punishments. And their selves to stay accordingly.

[udroxz]

yes indeed USD is using for illegal activities in all countries there are non government organizations are using dollars to effecting to terrorism in the world.

[Getcoinsite]

Every country in the world has their own contributions to the terrorist,because they are recruiting from every Corner of the world,and itsnot just dollar is what uses to funds terrorist  jobs but all the currencies in the worlds that represents every member of their no mercy groups.so lets not point to dollar or crypto the issues,this is worldwide

[expert4knowledge]

Is the biggest currency in the world used for illegal activities ?... Probably?

[tuikindu01]

As the dollar has become more international, more and more crimes are now being used in dollars, for example, to fund and unconstitutional terrorists, illegal wars, drugs. There are also some criminals who use bitcoin, or the dollar is used more, and so on.

[Maslate]

Actually it can be use for legal and illegal activities and that would be up to the users.
No wonder crimes in the world is because of money and when people are greedy they will do illegal things just to obtain more money.

[Chrisjay29]

yes usd is already use by many illegal activity. not only usd many if currency in the world has been use by illegal. Most of them is the government especially on those people who have high rank. they always corrupt and pay people so they will be silence or they pay a hired killer to kill people who know them.

[plaintiff77]

Well i think most of the top currencies can be used for illegalities. We can observe that in some news. Wherever illegal activities took place. Although it is doubted to be used for that, this can never drag down dollar currency. It will always depend on it is being used. Could either be bad or good.

all things related to money can be used for illegal activities, whether it is USD, bitcoin, gold, stocks, drugs or anything that can be used to make you rich can be used for illegal activities, depending on how we use the money, I think not a problem but human beings do tend to gain wealth quickly regardless of whether it is legal or illegal, what matters to humans is to seek satisfaction and lust for riches

[monomix]

any currency is used for illegals, like any person has a dark side. will the gov stop - no, try to put under control - definetly.

of course USD is being used for illegal activities sometimes terrorist funding. Definitely much more than bitcoin. Yet bitcoin is being slammed for that part. We need to manage to prevent this from happening, both with btc and usd

[Alalex]

The discussion of the extraordinary problem, I think terrorists are part of the officers who work to smuggle weapons.

Times not from where can be terotis have weapons, ordinary people will not be able to smuggle weapons of war to be sold.

The weapon must be part of the smuggling of weapons by one of the state apparatus.

So buyers use weapons for payments as assigned by those who pay them.

Not necessarily USD is used for illegal activities.

Funding the war on drugs, it is the duty of the local government apparatus.

And there are also officers who help the drug circulation in our country.

The scheme of all blind people if it is paid for a large fee whatever they want to do something big risk for a great smell.

I have already mentioned a lot not just thugs who are paid for by crime but the state government apparatus also take part in this big risky thing.

More state apparatus are doing things like this than thugs around us.

Thugs only dare to commit crimes around him while the authorities can commit crimes greater than thugs.

It's enough we discussed things like this, now let's discuss about the development of cripto money just for the future of us all.

Let me be more fun for forums and forum members who are here ..

Look around you, any type of currency can be used for illegal activities and not just the USD. Yeah, the almighty USD would probably be king in terms of usage for illegal acts but that's looking at the bigger picture. If you check news around the world, you'll see people buying drugs from their local peddler or even hiring someone to murder someone. On a granular level, you'll see that local currency is used to fund these illegal activities. So singling out the USD would be a a bit of a stretch as it's not the only one used.

[Menawi12]

Dollars is acceptable around the world and thats why many illegal activity using dollars. But I think, illegal activity can use any currency and its depending on user want to do illegal acitivity or maybe charity.

[jaocoincrypto18]

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.

All fiat currencies arround the world can be use both in legal and illegal activities including the gold. It just happen that the US dollar currency is the most commonly used all over the world for daily spending so therefore it is unfair to the US dollar to become the center of attraction for all illegal activities that are happening in the whole world.

[MidKnight]

It's not only USD but gold or silver can also be used in illegal. USD is just widely accepted so it's getting used more than any valuable things like jewelries.

[scrototeabaggins]

Usd is used as funding for illegal activities, it applies to every currency in circulation right now, in fact we only see the USD currency most often used for the activity , perhaps because this currency has a large enough value and the effect is large enough, so not a few of the group groups that use it for illegal acts, the currency misuse depends on how a person uses it, we only have to use it wisely
