Criminality and Bitcoin

[SirLancelot]

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.

I agree with you completely. Blaming bitcoins for any crime is just like blaming a knife for murder. All depends on the user. Anything can be used as mode for crime if the user has an evil mind. Bitcoins are just a digital currency that makes transactions easier for the layman. They are a source of income for those who are not doing great with their jobs. It’s a hope for passionate youngster who wants to be the billionaires.

The presence of bitcoin makes everyone happy and eager to divert the transaction from bank to bitcoin including crime, anonymous makes everything difficult to trace and that is the reason why bitcoin is favored by criminals.

Bitcoin is untraceable that's why most of the bad person taking advantage of bitcoin they avail the usages of bitcoin in a bad things habit.
Which is not supped to be happen actually. They are abusing the goodness of bitcoin to anyone.

Everything that is good will always be used for something bad. For example, a gun might have been created to hunt animals or kill bad people. In reality, it's being used to rob someone or kill someone innocent. Just look at the ISIS group and you know what I mean. Was the gun made for that purpose? I know it's a bad example but you understand it.

Bitcoin is untraceable but it not really is. You can still be traced because the ledger of bitcoin is available for everyone to see. Things can still be connected. Cash is the one that's not traceable. Whenever you receive money, do you know whom it came from? Not at all. After you used it to pay for someone, you don't know where that same paper bill will go.

Probably. Because of the anonymous of bitcoin they can use it to other reasons. Even that reason is bad and related to criminality. It doesnt matter on them, but the image of bitcoin might be affected people will only think that all the bitcoin comes from criminality amd people that are using it is criminal.

That's why bitcoin education is very difficult for ordinary people, especially for those who have previously heard of criminality with bitcoin, as recently happened in the world of hacking WANNACRY who has requested payment with bitcoin. The reputation of bitcoin will continue to be bad if left alone and there must be a clever person to explain bitcoin well.

I think that good side of bitcoin is whet make it endure all difficulties so far. Because most of people hear about bitcoin from some person that they know, and not from some media. There are  those which learn about bitcoin in bad way, like with that virus or from person who was hit by it. But as long as there are more of those who know the truth, bitcoin will live on.

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.

Anything that humans have invented for certain purposes can do really have advantages and disadvantages which are depending on how users or consumers use it or manage it. Criminality has been present ever since technology has not yet made, it is because humans have a trait of being greedy that is why they such thing for their own benefits while abducting the rights of other people. Bitcoin cannot be blamed on how criminalities behave because it is a human failure of using it properly. Bitcon has been established to do many purpose and criminality is not a part of it.

I agree with your opinion, because the criminality of someone who uses bitcoin as a means of payment, bad for bitcoin itself, many people will judge bitcoin is not good to use because their view of bitcoin is very negative, everyone should know bitcoin not just used for Criminals, many still use them properly without violating existing laws, and bitcoin is not entirely guilty, what is wrong is the type of transaction they do

Criminality is always present anywhere and even everywhere due to the trait or characteristic of a human to be greedy. Bitcoin upholds the capability of earning money that needs hardwork that can be earned for an instant. But because people are not contented of what they have, criminality happens. Bitcoin is put into blame with criminality because people become greedy and longing for easy money that is an effect of too much usage. But bitcoin is not the root of criminality. It is the greediness that brought up criminality.

[tamarindbleu]

i doubt it.
criminal activities were happening even before bitcoin. for example the ransomware that everyone is talking about these days have been around a very long time before bitcoin was created!

and besides since bitcoin doesn't offer real anonymity it can not really help the criminals as much as things like hard cash helps them.

Hell yeah,I definitely and totally agreed on what you've said,eventhough the Bitcoin exists or maybe doesn't,criminality is always present and One theory says that even if one person is very kind there is an instances that in some part of the corner of his brain there is what we call criminal mind.Criminality exists long long time ago even before Bitcoin has been created and existed.That thought though and very well said.

[suzukiy]

In my opinion it is true too, because if you cursed bitcoin for criminal transactions then the existence of our money will be difficult to trace, what else like my country that many people of corruption,

It is true, I do believe that along the bitcoin's popularity the criminalities around the world is gradually spreading. Because of the bitcoin's anonymousity it is being used in wrong way like payment for drugs transaction and etc. Hence, we...here in crypto community must know the real purpose of this currency and we must not take the advantage of btc for our illegal transaction.  Please don't join upon their illegal activity instead we ought to teach the real usage of it upon those who wanted to enter the cryptoworld.

That is one of the disadvantages of the bitcoin. Many people are using bitcoin in a bad way. Like in the black market, many people are trading drugs and human organs and they using bitcoin. I can say that bitcoin can also use in criminality.

We don't need to be surprise to the relationship of bitcoin and the criminality because bitcoin is already used even on its first few years in the black market because of its being anonymous so the authorities cannot trace them down and that is the advantage of using bitcoin for the criminals but such a huge disadvantage to us. If i were satoshi nakamoto, i will remove that anonymity to avoid crimes.

Yeah I agree to you. Bitcoin is using in the black market and it is illegal we all know that. They buy and sell of drugs using the bitcoin. I can say that there is a connection between bitcoin and criminality.

[Getmon]

Criminality and bitcoin are not directly related to each other. Bitcoin cannot even cause criminality to increase. Criminality is beyond the control of bitcoin. Why do we have to link the two?

[nagobinga]

Bitcoin is now widely used by krimanals because bitcoin visas make money so tantalizing, because bitcoin can make infinite money.

[ipanks]

Criminality and bitcoin are not directly related to each other. Bitcoin cannot even cause criminality to increase. Criminality is beyond the control of bitcoin. Why do we have to link the two?

because we have seen in mass media or article, people talking about bitcoin related with money laundry and bitcoin itself is anonymous so it will be difficult to tracked where the transaction come from. and maybe people is thinking that bitcoin only use with criminality and they don't care about this. this is our jobs to clear what they thinking so bitcoin will be know as a good thing for them.

[bitcoinissatan]

I think not all criminals always use transactions to do with bitcoin and what if someone uses bitcoin because the popularity of economic expansion in every state really helps with that and yet depends on bitcoin users will be used for crime or goodness. , Hopefully Bitcoin development process so as not to be abused from the user,

Bitcoins are appreciated by the people all over the globe whether rich or poor, employed or unemployed etc. The decentralization and anonymity has made it perfect for all people who want to avoid high bank taxes and do not want to be controlled by corrupt political. Bitcoins are not found to increase crime rate in any society. They are just a mode of payment.
