  it never occurred to me before if this article is true, but it's all out of control surely there will be people who abuse Bitcoin for their personal gain and satisfaction...this is the reality we have to accept, I just hope, all crime can be minimized with the help of technology.

Just cut the crap out of it why don't you guys just use the system as it is designed to. Why even bothering inserting images or any virus or anything in it why not just play with it enjoy all the benefits of it during time don't act like a kid who is trying to destroy them after you got them. I do not think anyone has to worry about Bitcoins as it is not going to be a link sharing stuff on the internet it is meant to be a money processing system and it is best in the network let it stay as it is do not interfere with it.

Child pornography existed already before Bitcoin invention and it's not new that some of them accept Bitcoin as payment (i already saw this in the dark web back in 2012).
Why this should be a problem now?

[Vertex_ICO]

Child pornography existed long before Bitcoin came around and will exist long after it. People will always find a means to an end. It has absolutely nothing to do with Bitcoin.

It has absolutely nothing to do with Bitcoin.

Actually -
the issue is that child porn data has been permanently stored ON the BTC blockchain itself.

But no-one here seems to realise that

if the goverment ban bitcoin because of only someone using it for illegal thing (in this case is child pornography) so goverment should be also ban any other kind of real money, digital money etc. the fact is when theres a demand to child pornography so everybody will be doing anything to gain a profit on it, not only using bitcoin. so the goverment must find a solution to decrease that demand, not blaming the way to get into it

[vinbitpon]

Child pornography in any form should be banned, including to those individuals that use bitcoin as a tool to promote this. This is totally unacceptable and should be stopped.

I have already made a comment of this topic but I made some research about the relationship of bitcoin and child pornography. There were actually cases wherein people use bitcoin to pay somebody to have access to child pornographic materials but there is much bigger problem here. It is not with bitcoin as a currency but with the technology which is blockchain itself. I have read that last 2015 the Interpol have warned that blockchain could be used to storing virtually un-deletable malware or child abuse images. This is the one of the biggest concern of Interpol with regards to blockchain and child pornography.

Well thats really the sad truth bitcoin. Bitcoins anonymity was supposed to be use as an escape to taxes given by the goverment when they find our transactions but still there are some people who uses it in bad ways instead. One way is what you have mentioned but there are more when you try to access deepweb. But I have also read of some article which the blockchain now records your transaction if you use their wallet so the probability of your identity to be exposed is high. But still the bad ones are still finding a way just to spend their bitcoin in illegal ways.

Is horrible to think that is possible to happen about child pornography in bitcoin because we can’t handle when and where the investors spend their income or profit that they gain or earn  from the company of bitcoin and is sad to think of it that sometimes is usually happen because of the some people bad habit.

A very alarming post which I consider to be the reason why the price of bitcoin is still down today. It will take time for me to research all of this so that I will be able to believe this or not. Nonetheless, I am in great trouble because all of my money are in bitcoin and I need to convert it to prevent these type of viruses or links that you said.

Bitcoin should be used in a modest way without compromising the legal rights of the minors such acts should be given full attention and comprehensive legal approach.

This is bad news especially to those advocating against sex offenders. Bitcoin nowadays is renowned worldwide and we should not let child pornography take part in this one. We would like our children to have safe internet browsing, that even if they grow up and cryptocurrencies made it in the future, we should still be creating a pornography environment for them. This should never be tolerated and I think developers should take actions to prevent or stop this from happening

A bad news either. Hoping that it is not true because surely it will affect the reputation of bitcoin. And there is the possibility that bitcoin will be banned because of pornography.

All that "Bitcoin is guilty in pornography/murders/drugs/etc." is ridiculous. A cryptocurrency is a tool and nothing more, same way we can say fiats is guilty in all same things

The post is ridiculously biased. What they are saying is that I can not spend a dollar note that someone else i don't know, has used to pay for watching child pornography. This is a very weak article and should be disregarded. Empty FUD

Bitcoin found porn. Scientists analyzed 1600 files contained in the code of the crypto currency. Most of them turned out to be links, while eight files contained images of a sexual nature. At least one of them shows a minor, scientists believe. Child pornography is banned in 112 countries, which may make Bitcoin's possession illegal. The files enclosed in the code can not be changed or deleted - this is one of the special features of distributed registry technology.

actually why should bitcoin  join in this hoax posted news,that bitcoin become illegal in ban all over the world because of child pornography,because the real truth about bitcoin is only for promoting  economic growth and social responsibility and not for destroying the human kind  just like what stated in this statement.definetly bitcoin is not for child pornography or other illegal activities,but for the purpose of capitalize country.

This is not bitcoin's fault. If someone murders for usd or others currency then that is not USD fault right? It's all about bad people. You can't blame bitcoin for this because of bitcoin is using in child pornography. Though many upstart reporters written many articles about it, but I will always say it is not bitcoin's fault.
