Where ever you are, what ever you do, criminals are everywhere. Bitcoin has nothing to do with that, somehow. But I confess that some criminals do use Bitcoin for something that's not good.

The perception of criminality rate in bitcoin also applies equally to fiat, much bitcoin use only leads to internet technology. It really doesn't make any difference and this is not the main reason if bitcoin is must ultimately regulate by the government. Bitcoin crime does look more intellectual and we are trapped by anonymous and decentralized patterns, but this makes us more responsible and more qualified to maintain the security and balance of personal accounts.

https://www.deepdotweb.com/2016/01/23/bitcoin-playing-an-increased-role-in-crime-europol-says/Would you believe that the existence of bitcoin has increased the number of criminality in some countries in the world. This is the issue that was being thrown by the EuroPol and the UK Metropolitan Police. According to them bitcoin has played a huge role on the increasing criminality in their area. They added that a huge number of cybercriminals were using bitcoins in their activities. This just shows that as bitcoin develops both advantages and disadvantages will tag along. Bitcoin becomes very useful for criminals who want to hide money from the proceeds of their crimes. Because if they save money in the bank, money from criminal proceeds can easily be tracked. Bitcoin can also be misused by people who want to hide their income from the government, and avoid paying taxes. Then, the state revenue from the tax will be lost because the money can not be traced. The role of currency is just to make the process of transaction between the businessman and customer or between the buyer and seller and in this regard bitcoin is playing the role very responsively. It is reality that currently bitcoin may also be used by criminals for their bad intensions and this due to the quick behavior procedure of bitcoin and the criminals prefer quick transaction for their business so much, but it does not mean that bitcoin is enhancing criminality. Many people are using bitcoin for their shopping purposes, so it depends on the person that for what purpose a man is going to use bitcoin.

Indeed Bitcoin can be easily used in criminal activities and person can remain anonymous using various addresses. But still there are many cases where the criminals are easily traced through connecting various transactions and addresses. The thing is Bitcoin is not better than fiat in any way for funding criminal activities. Countries through some regulations can make Bitcoin easily traceable when required. Fiat is way more anonymous than any cryptocurrency.

Unfortunately, it's true that criminals likes bitcoin and used it for criminal purpose. Recently, I heard TV report in my country that police found and caught drug dealers. They bought drugs in the dark web and paid with bitcoin. Because of such reports, people can get very negative image about bitcoin.

Bitcoin is new type money.transactions can do anyone without original names,here we have chance of criminality. here sending and receiving bitcoins to anyone through the address,some one miss lead this for decentralized facility.
Some of criminals are really taking advantage of using bitcoin for their illegal activities but we should all remember that even infiat money, criminals are using it as mode of trasanctions. Both fiat and bitcoin are design for the benefit of the people and really not for criminals yes you are right that bitcoin is being famous now and a lot of people are taking the benefits of the popularity of the bitcoin and the main reason behind the miss use of the bitcoin is that it is as secret as you want it to be so some of the criminals are able to take the disadvantage of the bitcoin but it cannot reduce the importance and the value of the bitcoin.

Criminals will always be there, before any money, criminals are rife, criminals can not be stopped while there is life, don't blame bitcoin if criminals use bitcoin for transactions.
That's what I'm talking about. We can't just blame it on what we invest or what we innovate. In the end we're the one who is using that technology and we're the one responsible whether we will use it on good things or in bad things. Even before the creation the bacteria is fighting for the sake of a bigger being, there are viruses and antibodies and for the sake of the human body to go on the are continuing to fight. In this world in my opinion I think humans is fighting, there are criminals and police for the sake of the bigger being ahead of us so happenings like crime is inevitable. It is in our bloods. We're just afraid to confess that's why we are blaming these on Bitcoin and etc. Of course we have the right to choose but when it comes to the bigger picture I don't think we can all be good. In criminality and Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the same as a drug, when a bitcoin user uses it well, then bitcoin will remain positive. Similarly when used in negative, bitcoin will be bad. Such as money laundering, payment of crime services and many other thing
It is normal and even in fiat money, it is being used for illegal transactions. It is the holder's responsibility as to how he/she is going to use it. But yes, bitcoin is prone to being used for more illegal transactions due to its anonymity compared to fiat money. Surely there are many things we can do about what and how we use bitcoin, all will be exactly as we want it to be. It's all we can control it

Are you informed people that popular mixing service has been closed because he is being pressured by the government. And he says that bitcoin has future even without dark market transactions which we know that bitcoin became popular their first and most of the people are using their service because of it.

With the collapse of the two most prominent deepweb distribution portals going down in the past three weeks. It is safe to say that bitcoin isn't the route cause of the individuals who use it for their own purpose in those cases. It is a just a vessel for the cause of them to exchange their products in for a means of so to say "Cash themselves out!" ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Right. We cant do anything if others want to spend their bitcoins their. If they doesnt want to spend it for good. It is true many criminals now are using bitcoin as money. Bitcoin might have wrong image because of that.

Is that they have found a way to take advantage of bitcoin technology and used it for their crimes. But least not forgot, even with fiat, crimes are still committed. So bitcoin has nothing to do with criminality. Crimes will happened everywhere without the name of bitcoin in it.

The nature of decentralized makes the criminal factor capable of running without the rule of law of a centralized system.

Bitcoin has nothing to do with increase in criminality ratio.Criminality existed even before bitcoin was created and it would even exist in future if bitcoin disappears.Even if criminals want to use crypto currencies and hide their identity,they would go with mo nero or zcash which are fully anonymous and would not use bitcoins since bitcoin is pseudo anonymous.Bitcoin transactions could be easily traced unless sevices liking mixing bitcons is used.

spot on! criimnalities are already in existence even before the creation of bitcoins. Hence, criminals can get away with using either fiat money or cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, monero, and more coins. Bitcoin, just like fiat money, has really no control over the mind hold it.

The is no doubt about the fact that criminal activities could be linked to every other currency not just bitcoin alone. And I don't agree with your submission that bitcoin has led to the increase in criminal activities or cyber crime. All criminal activities has been in existence and on the high level before the introduction of Bitcoin.

I agree with you. Cybercriminals have always been and will be regardless of whether there will remain in the future crypto currency or not. Similarly, for any criminal purposes, you can use any currency. Bitcoin has no role here
