Bitcoin is being used widely in porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Is that why the btc made for ?

Block chain tech is a awesome tech and btc is getting popular. I hate these misuses of precious btc. It hurts me. This will lead into unhealthy society along with unhealthy future generation.
Maybe it is because of its advantages. Bitcoin is decentralized and we are all awared with that, this only means that its users are allowed to use Bitcoin as they like. And also, Bitcoin is a currency which is at the same time, a good source of income. In just by holding it you'll be able to earn profit becuase its value increases as time passes by. Bitcoin is a digital currency which can also be considered as a "trend" that may also be a reason why people nowadays prefer Bitcoin over fiat.

As newbie, as you are and yet you are so correct about the comparison between bitcoin and fiat money. Regarding gambling, there is really no time waiting (usually takes several weeks to month before you will be given approval and after careful background analysis that you pass the gambling site requirements before you even be able to start playing.

But this time, online casinos are no longer requiring any documents whatsoever which makes gambling even more appealing to the public.

Bitcoin is used for this kind of things even long time ago. Bitcoin is hard to track and never gets hold unlike banks. And because you are anonymously transacting using Bitcoin, it makes the currency liable for that.

Hello all. Problem is not in the Bitcoin. The problem is in the people and how they use bitcoins or some knowledge. I  also can say that people who kill other people with knife have a negative impact on the reputation people who sell knives or who make knives it every day. You don't need feel bad yourself about this. Normal people can understand that blockchain technology is awesome! Of course it can be used on different negative way but this is not our problem! Wink

Do you think no one can track the source of transaction in Bitcoin system? Nope, in present, Bitcoin can not does that and it has proves by the incident of a large exchange for miner and UG is BTC-e exchange in few months ago.

I do agree that bitcoin transactions anonymousity cannot be track easily due to it's secured and confidential transaction system. Banks had it's own information tracks, but with bitcoin's decentralized type of currency it remained safe of any possible terrorism attacks like those hackers online. Most people trusted bitcoin nowadays over fiat systems and in fact that's the most sources of funds right now and it's been sustaining for years.

I heard that some of transactions involve in bitcoin are illegal. So perhaps some preferred bitcoin over fiat because of its anonymity. Highly concealed transactions involving drugs, arms, assassination, and the like use bitcoin as a form of payment.

You are right there mate. With bitcoin, there are really more features and opportunities to be made at this point in time than with fiat money where it will just keep on losing its value due to inflation because of overproducing of fiat paper while bitcoin has a max limit which makes it more valuable if we look at it.

The drug trade and viewing of porn happens with the usual currency. Bitcoin is not to blame for having bad people. Bitcoin is used mainly because it gives you the opportunity to earn money and allows you to remain anonymous.
A currency is only be meant to be used to facilitate trade, nothing more, if people want to use it for those kind of purposes we cannot stop them, especially in a currency like bitcoin that has the philosophy that you are your own bank so once you make a transaction it cannot be changed due to the immutability of the blockchain, it is sad but if people want to use it for that we cannot do anything about it.

It could be that people choose bitcoin because of it, but not a few also those who really use bitcoin well.
Misuse of bitcoin as you discuss it does seem to me to harm the bitcoin itself, it is what makes the state alert and does not legalize bitcoin just to overcome the bitcoin misuse of its users.

In terms of making money bitcoin is a great investment, when majority of the users are very satisfied with the technology they will help us spread the good news and the next thing will happen is an increase in demand. We as investors if we buy at the current price now we will get more profit in the future as with the limited supply there is a chance of decreasing due to lost supply while demand is efficiently increasing.

A few people lean toward bitcoin over fiat in light of the fact that on a few spots bitcoin is tax exempt. I get it's not terrible to utilize bitcoin for something insofar as you're not infringing upon any law/rules from your place. There's significantly more abuses of btc yet in the event that we proceed with this dialog it's getting kinda off subject when the title is about bitcoin and fiat. There can be sure limitations that no one but bitcoin can sidestep. For instance, in numerous nations, underage individuals can't open ledgers to their name without parental assent. Bit all the more imperatively, whole nations are restricted by things like capital controls.

It is not made for that. But come to think of this. Money is also use the same way as that. I think no matter what we create, if it can be use for that reason the drug addicts, the porn viewer etc, will not stop on using it. It just made the transaction illegally more convenient too. It is unregulated and I think nothing can stop them from doing that or us in taking advantage of its convenience.

But bitcoin is not made purely because of thta it is a great blockchain use for convenience of the holder.

I think this is quite easy question. Some people have more possibilities to earn bitcoin than fiat money. Some of them also don't like to make business with banks and stay more or less anonimous when making transactions which is not possible with fiat money. And if you want to buy something on dark markets you can't do that with fiat money.

Isn't it obvious? Why would anyone want to hide their financial transactions/income? To be taxed! And in this world where taxes are so super high, it makes sense to go under the radar. Just know that the NSA has been monitoring all bitcoin transactions since 2013, so you will want to use anonimity coins like monero, dash or deeponion.
