I once read an article that says bitcoin is used as a payment transaction for terrorists and hackers. And maybe you guys in this forum also already know it. But here i want to convey my personal opinion in that matter. I think that internet and bitcoin interrelated. Many terrorists and criminals use internet .so also with bitcoin which used perpetrator However, despite all these issues, do people make concrete efforts to ban the internet? No. Not because removing and banning Bitcoin is difficult, but because the internet offers more positive than negative. For the same reason, we have to be more careful about our mindset for Bitcoin, because much evidence has shown that Bitcoin brings many positive, if not more, effects than the internet. Internet and Bitcoin are just devices that 'bad guys' and 'good people'. Fortunately, the world is filled with more people in the 'good people' category.

the question is what is it being criminal, i think the govs are the real ruthless criminals but they want to dominate that, anyhow the digital currreny is making people masters and responsible for the first time in History.

The real  criminals are the one's printing fiat, collecting taxes and sellings weapons around the world.

Maybe they can be considered as one of the criminals but there are people who commits more violence act  which most of the people reffering to.Bitcoin has a nature that good for doing illegal activities and easy to use by those people.It is not a surprise though

[Creepings]

BTC is one of the many ways of dealing with criminals. By using BTC as a means of payment, you can avoid the supervision of many government departments.

I don't think so. Bitcoin may be known as a anonymous digital currency but bitcoin is not really anonymous since there is a lot of articles and threads that states this. In fact there are a lot of criminals that is been caught using bitcoin into criminal activities.

People can avoid the eyes of the government, but don't say that you will be avoiding the eyes of the government if you do something that will make them track your bitcoin transactions.

For me maybe theres a possibility because some criminals used this as an sustainer of their money to steal some coins.And also why scammers have also on this system yeah they were seeking for money to provide their needs.

The link between terrorism and bitcoin is not surprising; indeed, they are older than the blockchain itself.

When governments confuse bitcoin with terrorism, it is as if they confuse the right to encrypt Internet privacy with anything else they can't control. Politicians can shout and shout about what they like, but the public will eventually understand.

However, regardless of whether you believe cryptocurrency is all about facilitating crime vs. crime being but a small, unfortunate side effect of the rise of crypto coinage, there’s no arguing with the fact that global law enforcement recognizes that cryptocurrency is the criminal’s playground.

Naturally, in the underworld, bitcoin is used because of its anonymity, but it does not make bitcoin a bad currency, and the speech that it is used ONLY in crime is spread by the government in order to have an excuse  their attempts to adjust this currency

This is probably the main reason why most of the countries doesn't approve and agree with the use of Bitcoin. It can be used for illegal payment transactions and the government should take into consideration about the risk of using bitcoin.

As if the US Dollar and other currencies are not used in illegal transactions. Governments and banksters hate Bitcoin, because it removes their power to control and issue money. Unlike fiat currency, Bitcoin is not a debt instrument that they can use to enslave people and to finance wars.

Stop blaming Bitcoin always that's rude. Bitcoin is just another form of currency just like the cold or the physical cash the point is due to the characteristic Bitcoin possess some criminals I using it for their benefit but that doesn't mean Bitcoin is made for caiman as they are also using credit cards and other stuff which are getting hacked daily. With Bitcoin, they have to simply trade coins rather than hacking it.

Btc use is like money and we know money is the root of evil. But actually it is in the hands of the person how he/she use the resources they have. The responsibility bares in the hand of the bearer not in btc. It is just black propagandas washing away the good of btc to eliminate it in the cryptocurrency world.

We actually dont know and who knows? Bitcoin online trasactions as of now is untracesable except i think in canada they said iits tracesable already but im not so sure yet. They said the tax of bitcoin in canada is 40% . Anyhow lets get back to the main question, basically internet has a lot positive feedbacks comapred to negative one just like bitcoin, lets say if this was used to do any crime act,i think there are more positive way bitcoin had offer to each everyone. The opportunities that has given people on which we earn in so man ways by workingon on it. There are always a positive and negative outcome in everything we do. Crimes are just always their because we cant control peoples attitude or what they think and do. I think thats the reason why every country Governments are very vigilant and skeptical with any crytocurrencies around the world. Lest just hope for the best and think positive.

Even the everyday fiat is used more by criminals. Ever heard about stages of money laundering: Placing, layering and integration...these are well known to be based on fiat. So i think so far it is controlled by humans, anything can be used by criminals.

[signalbitbot]

Crime uses everything, bitcoin is just some part.

[bayupermana]

Crime uses everything, bitcoin is just some part.

Yes the point is criminals are using every hole in this system to earn their own profits and actually they're taking advance on Bitcoin as the first day it showed up.
Being too good is a sin , that's totally not fair with Bitcoin at all. We can't stop criminals to use them , the only thing we can do track their criminals and busting all of them.

Maybe yes, bitcoin is used by criminals because as you can see, the bitcoin has lots of benefits to all of us and one of it is that bitcoin can really be used for transactions and for sure that they are using it because it is really hard to locate and monitor every transaction that they made using digital coins. They also know that out of bitcoin, they can have a huge amount of money when they hold it. Criminals are smart, anyways.

[Grisho]

it can utilize any methods for their culpability. Not simply bitcoin and different cryptos. The besy thing in bitcoin is even ideal for them. The untraceable exchanges and the secrecy of people included influences them to need to be into this sort of world. I see a great deal of trickster in facebook utilizing the name of bitcoin where truth be told, bitcoin isn't trick in any way.

[joan26]

This is mainly because many people think Bitcoin is anonymous, when in fact it’s the opposite - all Bitcoin transactions are transparent for the whole world to see. People might not be able to link the identity to Bitcoin right away.

We arw aware how bitcoin is used anonymously which simply means nobody knows what you have been doing.  Therefore there is really is a possibility that they are used by most criminals. But still it is still dependent on the person if they will choose to use it for crimes.
