I think the bitcoin will fall because of RANSOMWARE,it is impossible/Difficult to track who did this and in futur Bitcoins will be considered as a motivation mean for such act
Bitcoin was being used for criminal purposes for several years and even government know about this but they can't switch it off or take it down. So even though bitcoin can be considered as a motivation for criminal act, bitcoin will not fall or won't be dead.

Also this time it has been found over 172 Countries network. Now I believe people will know much about bitcoin as well the popularity will increase to higher extent. Everything has a bad part, same can be overcome by the goodness. Let's hope the same to happen with bitcoin.

80% of Indian ATMs operate on Windows XP and uses a firmware that limits the machine’s activities to basics such as dispensing cash and checking the balance. Other activities are blacklisted, which prevent a ransomware from attacking an ATM. I'm curious though if it still spreads in India and how accurate do you think this statement really is. http://www.hindustantimes.com/business-news/wannacry-ransomware-attack-how-safe-is-your-atm/story-VXyEXSvC7okrLdwPN8Lx3M.htmlMeanwhile in China (Cause Pirated versions are even in the ATM machines) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zerohedge.com%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fimages%2Fuser5%2Fimageroot%2F2017%2F05%2F12%2Fatm%2520china%25203.jpg&t=665&c=D8AuKtPYWa0TbQ)

Not only ATMs in China, many hospitals have similar problems, this hacker group is causing a global crisis. Although it is temporarily prevented, however, there is not anything that can guarantee that it will cease. They are really dangerous guys.

This is a very annoying incident that hackers include bitcoin in their hacking, if like this bitcoin will be viewed negatively and I'm afraid bitcoin will be judged as a supportive digital currency in terms of crime. I hope bitcoin will not be blocked because of this incident.

Yes they will make a deposit to get bitcoin, so they can get back their device, which has been hacked, then hackers will immediately sell all the bitcoin they get. The impact, bitcoin prices again declined. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)

Will bitcoin be more famous with the existence of this ransomware virus? Hopefully with the increasing popularity of bitcoin will make bitcoin prices rise.
I think the answer is yes because more and more people in my country start to read more about Bitcoin since there have been a wannacry. I believe that after this situation, the prices of Bitcoin will cross $2000

Its going to make more people wonder what is this bitcoin thing. The masses must be wondering how can someone pay without being tracked and investigate further.

Well in fact if the malware is REALLY EFFICIENT the price should rise. Because lots of money will have to be transformed into btc to pay the ransom xD

Because lots of money will have to be transformed into btc to pay the ransom xD This would be a good logic but thinking off if the money needed by hackers are ransomed for local fiat money instead of bitcoin then what would be the effect? Its negative on either both sides even on btc payment it may somehow rise up the price but the credibility will surely be affected into bitcoin which would give bad impressions.

I've watched this in the news recently and I don't know its fortunate or unfortunate because no one has really reported anything regarding this and we might not know that if they have really experience and paid for it. Though on the other hand, I'm getting sick of these people saying Bitcoin is going to fall or die like from the rising unconfirmed transactions in the blockchain and this one. Bitcoin is strong actually and I think that ransomware can't shut the Bitcoin down.

I don't think it will be impossible to track who did this ransomware. I know one day there would be some hunters that can track him down. Well this is just another crime but the hacker is asking to ransom for bitcoin and this is going to give bitcoin another bad reputation. Shame on this guy, I hope that this will be resolved soon.

We do really have high faith for bitcoin and even on this catastrophe experiencing on bitcoin as of now I think it wont really be easily fall down on an instant.It can really be used for illegal stuffs since we do know the capacity and ability of bitcoin talking about anonymity that's why those criminals do really use it because they know that stuff too.It will surely give negative impact on bitcoins view to the public.

Everyone, especially the miners, said that if bitcoin segwit, they would lose the benefits. However, it is not accurate, in addition, some benefits are only their own interests, this shows that they are selfish. We should choose the measures that benefit the community.
