Why they are only looking at the possibility of bitcoin being used for criminality or any related violence funding? Criminality acts are even existing bitcoin is not yet created. And they are only taking advantage bitcoin for it's anonymity so they found a way for supporting their criminality.
Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

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, the Internet currency beloved by computer scientists, libertarians, and criminals, is no longer invulnerable. As recently as 3 years ago, it seemed that anyone could buy or sell anything with Bitcoin and never be tracked, let alone busted if they broke the law.

Now days bitcoin has been chosen as a host for criminality. Although it has a good and bright helpful side but many antisocial people choose the dark side of the bitcoin and doing their criminal activities. Many criminal activities like kidnapping, murdering, child labourring, pronography, cyber crime etc. Anti money laundering is of the serious issue  which related with bitcoin. Many politicians, business using bitcoin transaction to hide their black money transaction. Terrorist organisation also doing money transaction through bitcoin.

Every pool has some bad site. Like that bitcoin has a few but not so much. You must believe on that bitcoin has a great innovation. People are become so comfortable on this.  Criminality is a thing you just find in everywhere. So need to compare with positive way. It is bitcoin which has given us a platform to change our life and make easier and comfortable.  If I want to start to explain the usefulness it's not will be over on one column. people are using as safe transactions way. bye doing trade, bounty, gambling, mining people are earning a lot.  so that I can easily say think it as positive the negative things are minor.

Having a successful bitcoin account has an equal criminality .  We all know that it is an online business and online business is manage and full of professional hacker. I am not saying that the handler of this is the hacker instead it is the member. If you've been successful in bitcoin get ready for some thief that might stole your account and your investments.

Crime has always existed, can not be said that bitcoin caused a crime. Of course the anonymity of bitcoin is why criminals use bitcoin, but do not they trade without bitcoin? They will certainly look for other ways. Just as you have killed people with a knife, you are guilty, but the knife has no sin.

in my opinion, it's a natural thing, because the value of bitcoin is very high, therefore criminality occurs in bitcoin, such as hackers who try to hack bitcoin sites and want high income and instantly, so secure your bitcoin account  Shocked
n my opinion every think has two sides .one is bad and one is good .its upon you that which side you want to use.bad or good.It is not right.Bitcoin is just a online currency. If anyone used it illegally then it's their fault not bitcoin forum.After all before created bitcoin there were also crime. Yes,nowadays,cyber crime has increased so much but it is not for bitcoin.But they are using bitcoin for save or transfer money.But bitcoin has created for earning money by investing money for man's income.So it's not bitcoin fault. This is a bullshit accused against bitcoin.I will advice the police to catch those criminal but don't accuse the bitcoin. criminality is there before bitcoin.

Everything in this world have their advantage and disadvantages. Bitcoin also have this things. Since Bitcoin is a virtual digital money and the technology today is advance, they used cryptocurrency like Bitcoin in their activities because i think its easier that way. And also because of the high rise of the value of price its been a diamond in the eye of criminals. Bitcoin it not at fault at this , it was just misuse of the way it must it is.

Law enforcement authorities are still gaining knowledge of the bitcoin. Over time, law enforcement capabilities in this area will only grow, especially as new analytical tools are being developed.

I guess somewhat because of bitcoin, criminality has raised, sadly hackers and phishers are being the ones responsible for this, and because of it bitcoin is being declared illegal onto some countries, in this case bitcoin will have a hard time and other cryptocurrencies to manage this, online may not be reliable because of tons of hackers, this would be hard for each cryptocurrency to gain such popularity they need.

Nowadays, Bitcoin is not useful to use for payment of crimial.
The government can track the transaction through exchange, unless they can find exchanger in private market.

I have just watched a facebook video exposing some scam using bitcoin - the guys said that criminals give 10% of all the money they laundered with exchange (possibly private exchange) so if they laundered 10 million dollars worth of bitcoin, the exchange get 1 million worth.

It's more likely criminals doing money laundering using this blockchain technology as for my understanding that's the outcome.

Bitcoin has disadvantage in very aspect of it because of the lack of regulation. We cannot blame the system but rather the people who uses it. It is really disappointing to hear news like these as it making the PR bad and lead to many more rumors and "claims" about cryptocurrency.

I think the company of bitcoin does not tolerate all criminality or illegal activities which deals using of their product in the market.
They have coordination to the government to have strong forced that will eliminate these irregularities happening in their business .

Maybe, this case just happened before the BTC-e exchange got banned from FBI U.S. I remember after that time, Bitcoin wasn't the cryptocurrency for criminal. In that time, the biggest mixer service also closed their service  to want the ecosystem of Bitcoin be good more, it's BitMixer.
