Bitcoin has the same purpose with money. Anything that money does, bitcoin can also do. It's not shocking anymore that bitcoin will be used in illegal matters. And also Bitcoin is more convenient is this type of transaction since one's identity can hardly be traced.

Indeed.  Any one who is commiting and will do crimes will do anything just to do it.  So like you said, whether it was in the form of cash or bitcoin, they will still do it for the sake of committing crimes.  Bitcoin is the best way to do such acts because like you said, no one can trace your identity.
That’s not the fault of bitcoin that it is used in the false activities and according to survey and before bitcoin in the crime activities cash money was used was it the fault of cash it is the fault of person using it so don’t blame bitcoin over this and there are serious concern for the regions on this and they are sorting out so that illegal activities can be tracked and this use can be stop and in future this will happen.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

I think it can happen also. That's maybe the worst ever happen with bitcoin. Its really a broad idea on how to regulate these crimes. I just hope that those using it for good and best welfare of everyone will not be included. This is invented by human beings so probably there should be some formal conference about this between the authorities and the inventors of bitcoin. Well, these are just my ideas and opinion. As for now, we'll just pray for peace and order.

   Bitcoin may help crime individuals in the way authorities define what is crime and what is not. For example in some country holding alcohol is not a crime but selling alcohol is crime then if a dealer sells alcohol with bitcoin he does not do a crime, because bitcoin is not money. And many other cases as well, such as avoiding taxes, illigal international tranfers etc.
   But you know what, the fact that kitchen knives is common tool for crimes does not mean it is gonna be forbidden. Same with bitcoin

Everything may happen, but do not look at the bitcoin from the negative side, the positive side of bitcoin is also very much. Such as helping us who hate the current bank system, taxes and other things.

BTC is a categorized as money,while it's already a natural law buyer is king.Applicable law is already in the hands of the authorities,if there is a problem they immediately arrested the guilty person.

   Bitcoin is better than any traditional currency, decentralized system where we do not
depend from government will. I do not hate current bank system, over the years people
are using that system to become more rich on other people misery and that is how whole
world works.
   With new system that bitcoin offer to use we can see better days. Criminals in suits and
with guns will use any medium to fulfill their intentions, bitcoin is just a tool for them and if
they can they will use what ever is on their way.

  Bitcoin may help crime individuals in the way authorities define what is crime and what is not. For example in some country holding alcohol is not a crime but selling alcohol is crime then if a dealer sells alcohol with bitcoin he does not do a crime, because bitcoin is not money. And many other cases as well, such as avoiding taxes, illigal international tranfers etc.
   But you know what, the fact that kitchen knives is common tool for crimes does not mean it is gonna be forbidden. Same with bitcoin

   I think the same as you as you can see from my words. Traditional currency can be a knife, bitcoin
is laser cuter. When you use bitcoin you need to open computer to make transactions and it is
transparent, I like idea behind it criminals will be able to hide their actions.



BIG WINNER!

This causes the bitcoin became popular and thus it affects its demmand.People are free of there actions so they can do whatever they want especially with bitcoin.Crimes are everywhere and criminals really finds way how they can transact such a big money and they see the opportunity that using bitcoin can help them untraceable and p2p transaction is so easy.We know that bitcoin is not created to do such criminal activity but we cant control people's mind doing such bad intention.

I believe that whenever something new come it come with advantages and so as with disadvantages.  As bitcoins allow a lot of cyber criminals new opportunities. Bitcoin’s underlying blockchain technology offers would-be cyber criminals two distinct advantages. By operating as a decentralised currency, whereby people pay each other without a middle man (like a bank or other financial institution), it provides a considerable amount of anonymity.Bitcoins can be held in virtual wallets identified only by a number. According to a recent Cambridge University study, as many as six million people around the world have a wallet of this kind, and spend bitcoins on goods from the increasing number of retailers now accepting the currency, as well as illicit goods like drugs and firearms on the digital black market.Sometimes perceived as the “wild west of finance”, the cryptocurrency space has been connected to various scams, hacks and other criminal activities which have taken advantage of this

if in my country that Indonesia is often heard bitcoin news is used as a means of transactions between countries for drug transactions because the payment is easy and can not be traced by the police government, making it difficult for the government to track transaction activities. Even so we have it own that technological progress has a positive impact and negative impact of our lives that determine will be in use for good or bad things.

Sometime bitcoin are used in crime. I know every work has some good and some bad site. If we avoid bad site it is help for all. Our country didn't want to permission bitcoin because our govt thik it is best of the key for crime. So I thik bitcoin needs special rules for crime. Sorry for my bad English

To be honest this time I just found out that bitcoin can be used for crime, so we all have to be alert and vigilant, so we will not be trapped or get crime from people who abuse or use bitcoin names for crime, thanks for the information, so who who do not know now can be more careful. Hopefully those who use bitcoin for crime are immediately aware.

Any currency in the world can be used in the "dark web". Money laundering happens with both bitcoin and fiat currencies. Bitcoin offers more anonymity? Yes,of course.. but that doesn't mean bitcoin is the only currency used in crimes.. Money is a tool that helps us human make transactions and bitcoin offers us a more reliable way to do that,without the centralization and control of banks and governments.  Wink

Op dollar or fiat has also been used and is still used in crimes and even if bitcoin were to die tomorrow, it's use in crimes would stop but the crimes won't. Like it's already been said a lots of times before digital as well as fiat both currencies can be used and misused, it can't be stopped without governments and public strong determination to put a stop to all the crimes and criminals. Yes we should be careful as to not become part of any such crime and not become victims of such crimes.

Not only now, Bitcoin was used in criminal activities since its beginnings. Furthermore, crimes existed from the beginning of mankind so there is no reoson to blame cryptocurrency. As traders let's look differently, Jason Bloomberg, the president of an analyst firm interested in cryptocurrency said : "the only reason bitcoin has value to anyone is because of the underlying value as a medium of exchange for lawbreakers. If we could flip a switch and eliminate all illegal uses of Bitcoin, there would be nothing left of the cybercurrency."

I believe one day someone can invent a program that can trace the blockchain paths to resolve the identity of a bitcoin wallet owner. Or else the government can use the crimes scenario to discourage other people to use bitcoin

My husband and I still talked about part of bitcoin's disadvantages; being used by corrupt leaders to store money for themselves without banks being able to trace it and monitor their finance as at before when financial monetary bodies could pokenose and question their increased earnings. I do hope there will be a somewhat check to this anonymity. Though,  there's almost always a bad side to every good technology.

Good point of view, We should not look to bitcoin from the negative side, bitcoin have a lot of good things, and also people decide which side they decide to follow, bad or good side of bitcoin. Personally, I use bitcoin because it have a lot of advatnages that i didn't see it in our real currency, It's too secure and our transactions is untracked, Furthermore, we have the Full control, even we can set our fees of transactions, It's really awesome.
