it's true that bitcoin is being used in many bad sectors but literally why would it stop. bitcoin is a kind of money and money can be spent/transfer anywhere in the world in exchange for some product or any service. bitcoin is also used by deep web and most probably for all kind of crimes. we can see the recent ransomewhere attack which also demanded Bitcoin from common users.

Anyone is thinking that bitcoin is widely used in many criminal activities because they are thinking that bitcoin can protect someone's identity making it an "anonymous " money. But the truth is, it is not. Bitcoin may be pseudo anonymous, many people told us that these digital currency can still be tracked. And just last week, I've read an article about these. Here is the link. www.cryptocoinsnews.com/terrorists-and-criminals-are-rarely-using-bitcoin-or-ethereum-eu-study-finds/amp/

Everyone can use money for illegal activities no matter payment is digital money like bitcoin,ethereum or fiat money. So bitcoin doesnt have any "deeply" connection with deep web activities..

Bitcoin is being used widely in porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Is that why the btc made for ? I have seen a lot of members in this forum discussing about buying drugs, gambling and enjoying porn with bitcoin. Is not it a misuse of a currency ? 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.
Well because bitcoins is a currency like fiat, everyone can use it for whatever he or she likes, Bitcoins wasn't made to be for only investments, it can be used for the day to day financial transactions the same way fiat issue used to do business.

They are enjoying the convenient bitcoin has given into their lives and it's not a sole tool for payment but they can also invest on it. It's like you are not worried keeping your money because it's not subject for inflation like cash is, bitcoin's value will grow once demand is increasing.

You are right, you can't control people who own bitcoin and make rules, like. You can't use bitcoin for illegal things.. etc. because bitcoin is made to disable any rules and make people who own some bitcoins free to use their bitcoin in anything they want, good or bad. But, when I heard that bitcoin used in illegal things, I feel too bad, because I want to people to use it for good things and don't waste them in shit stuffs, because it's too valuable.

I know already that any currency can be used for bad or good because it depends primarily on the users and they are responsible for it. The main concern only that would improve the market is to increase the demand and that would be possible if people will continue to adopt with bitcoin.

Well based on what you've said, the reason why they choose Bitcoin over Fiat is because of POWER. Having FREEDOM in using bitcoin is quite very powerful you see, I mean you can do almost anything by using it and no one will even know you did it. Anyways in Bitcoin 'everything is permitted'.

Because of its acceptability and credibility... Bitcoin has already created versatile criteria regarding use it, not only that it is being accepted in many sources. bitcoin has also gained huge value in recent years, especially in the recent few months. so there are a lot of reasons to choose Bitcoin rather than any other crypto currency.
yes thats it, and we can say that we want more the bitcoin rather than fiat because of its value, why? bitcoin value is very huge now compared to others we may also say that we want it more because of its anonymously , we can make transactions without the knowing of others thats why i like it too. thats the thing that i wanted most.

Because bitcoin has something amazing than fiat, but many countries are restricted to their capital controls?
Indeed! Bitcoins have many features that make them stand high than fiat currency. Fiat is an ancient mode of payments as compared to bitcoins. Bitcoins are offering total freedom to users whereas fiat currency is always controlled by the state. We need to pay high taxes in order to use our own money. Fiat does not have potential of increasing in value as bitcoins have.

Bitcoin is a decentralized currency.Every one could use it for whatever they wish.No one could control it.In earlier times,bitcoin was mostly used for illegal activities since it is pseudo anonymous.But after some altcoins like monero,zcash came with bfull anonymity,dark markets left using bitcoins.More over,bitcoin has user base all over the world and today it is used for all purposes especially as an investment and not for illegal activities.

I believe one of the reason why some people prefer bitcoin over fiat is the feature of store of value of Bitcoin. Having Bitcoin instead of cash enable us to have or gain more value though the downside is the opposite but since the market is not yet saturated and the incoming update seems bullish, there is more chance for Bitcoin holder to earn or gain value overtime.
Yeah that is also a benefit of having bitcoin but a long with that there are also many benefits of the usage of bitcoin like its transaction fees is very low and it also have the plus point that it is anonymous so we can send it to any country of the world without any restriction. Yes, bitcoin fees you have mentioned you are the first person who has knowledge that fees are low if you are using the right websites where they taxes are less on bitcoin and about bitcoin anonymous so yes we can send everywhere where we want to send because it is decentralized there is no one who are stopping bitcoin from sending so that's how we can trade on bitcoin.

I guess it is not fair for Bitcoin to say that it was used for illegal activities in the early stages of bitcoin and the same also with present Bitcoin it is no longer used for illegal activities. With all due respect, these are a fallacy. Why? Because because bitcoin was is and will be used to whatever holder of it is going to as they please - hence, it is still can be used for illegal activities just like the fiat money and it was use to buy pizza before and not just for illegal activities..

Except cash is 100% anonymous where as bitcoin is only partially anonymous. Bitcoin is not popular despite its value, at least not as a currency. Bitcoin is only popular as an investment. I get the impression people spew out crap in poor English only to fill the blank spaces for their own monetary rather than actually thinking about or even caring about the discussion at hand.

Well cash in hands is 100% anonymous compared to the money in the banks and debit/credit cards but it has huge taxes fees.
