ISIS is  currently raising funds through Bitcoin http://bit.ly/1x0qDBU

Well, I know for a fact what bitcoin can do for us, but will it help ISIS destroy US? Should Bitcoin regulated for this?

[R2D221]

Bitcoin is money, and money is just a tool. Money by itself has no morality and no sides.

If ISIS succeeds in whatever ISIS is doing it will not be because of the currency of their choice.

But to raise funds, they use Bitcoin.

[rokkyroad]

Don't say the 'eye cist' or 'ell quado' words online unless you want to be on the "watch" list. If you hear a knock on the door soon its probably some dudes in suits driving big black suvs.








Ok. So I watch too much tv.

Seriously though, key words will bring them to look at this page.

since they are in control of most the oil wells in syria and iraq its been estimated they are making 1-3 million dollars a DAY selling oil on the black market

this revenue has NOTHING to do with bitcoin

if anyone in the west is stupid enough to send btc to an ISIS address they will probably get a visit from a swat team shortly after so i wouldnt worry about more FUD in the news

[freedombit]

No need for organized regulation when companies and software like is present in the market:

... but will it help ISIS destroy US? ...

really? did fox news tell you that?
do you know what it would take to 'destroy the US'? even if every army in the whole world joined forces to attack the US, the US is still the superior power and is likely to win. Not clear a cut unscathed win obviously, but is almost certainly the favorite to have the last person standing.

ISIS, probably dont even have the capacity to take down some of the police forces in the US, nevermind 'destroy the US'. True, they could carry out a 911 style attack, but if they did i think the US response would render them inoperable. whats taking so long now is the lack of political will to go at them 'hard', the concern for innocent victims and the lack of a simple identifiable target.

what any of this has to do with bitcion (even if ISIS or any criminal/terrorist uses it) is 0, just sensationalist nonsense.

ISIS use toyota jeeps too, should we do something with toyota about that?

[turvarya]

Did you actually read the article?
It's pure speculation that IS is using Bitcoin.

careful of the news it is full of propaganda

anything bitcoin is used for illegally is the same for money in fact money is the first choice then any other currency to help with the cause.

bitcoin is not anonymous as in you cannot hide your transactions it is all on the blockchain


again be careful of the media do your own research

[LeMiner]

The most used currency for drugs and terrorism is still (and will continue to be) the US dollar.

That's pretty naive.  We aren't the super force we once were and being the most hated nation doesn't help matters.

[ncsupanda]

Now we just wait for the Bitcoin address for ISIS to be related to Gox and BitStamp, then we will have come full circle and we can all just leave.

[Gleb Gamow]

And this is a bad thing?

All a three-letter agency has to do is make a small handful of donations and track the coins. Voilà! An ISIS BBQ.

[Baghead]

I am pretty sure them guys have taken over banks, no need for bitcoin.

But there is an old saying no publicity is bad publicity

These subhumans do not deserve to be able to use the blockchain. I wish there was a way to somehow ban them.

[Nerazzura]

Being anti-government or anti-banking rhetoric is interesting, but only if you are a libertarian or anarchist. And not everyone is so.

I believe that this great revolution meneriakannya much a reform for the sake of money. But talk alone will not be enough to make it happen.

However, the technology is adequate.

If Steve Jobs said that he would destroy the world of music, you want to run out and buy an iPod?

If Steve Jobs and Jeff Bezos has been promoting their business came from all the hoopla that they themselves make music and publishing, many people may not feel so sure of this.
Bitcoin need to do the same.

In 80,000 words written online by Satoshi Nakamoto, makes about three statements politically vague. The goal is to get the technology to work, and make it a reason that Bitcoin has been so successful, in fact, caused by the technology that supports it. Now users bitcoin need to remember this parable.

[Bitcoin Sperg]

Bitcoin is used by terrorists to fund their murder and kidnappings, child molesters their child pornography, drug heads their poison. The only practical use for bitcoin is highly illegal and immoral activity that no mainstream bank would want anything to do with for legal liabilities. But bitcoiners don't understand cost benefit analysis which is why many of them end up in jail or broke with a condo full of fried GPU's. Anything practical or productive done with bitcoin can be done with currencies (actual money) at 1/1000th of the transaction cost (or zero) and 1000X the security and fraud protection. Bitcoin, the currency for suckers and criminals, which one are you? Cheers!   

[BittBurger]

Yayyyyyyyyy for DARK WEB!!!

You guys are really providing a service to humanity, creating a system that frees good, honest, hard working people from the oppressive govt regimes!

Oh, and helps mass murderers at the same time.   But heyyyyy "Free Market mannnnn" .....

Oh thats right - its okay because the govt does naughty things too, so its okay for you to pretend helping these people isn't "as bad" right?

Tell me again how Anarchy is the answer...

It was funny listening to someone ask Amir Taaki if he has a conscience about terrorists and murderers using his system, and with the typical crazy tone of voice he usually uses, he replied that there is no such thing as morality or right and wrong.  Fascinating view of reality.

[CoinCidental]

If Bitcoin were actually used to fund all the worlds wars and violence and drug deals the value of 1 btc would be astronomical

Everyone here would be Filthy rich already

Next question?

[bitcoin_bagholder]

Beheadings are so 2014, now it's all about live burnings

Burning alive and beheading are ancient forms of punishment. Burned alive in a cage is a nasty bit of showmanship. The heretics didn't meet their demise that way.

[Kprawn]

Let them believe Bitcoin/Crypto currency is fully anonymous.  

Most people spread the nonsense that Bitcoin cannot be traced and it just makes it easier for security experts to follow the bread crumbs to it's source.  

Sometimes, you just need to give people enough rope to hang themselves.  

[stellar1]

Wasn't altcoin designed to suit an usurper yet to have their mint running ? If you are usurping you gotta chop some heads man! Else yours gets chopped. Good interim choice of currency by ISIS and others to follow suit.

No matter what they use for raising funds, bitcoin is currency and currency is just tools, especially bitcoin is decentralization and anonymous.
but the impact is lay man will judge bitcoin is bad

Does anyone has the address of their receiving address ?

[Jamie_Boulder]

This is a good thing, it's no secret that Bitcoin isn't as anonymous as we think - this gives the authorities a chance to track down who is supporting this type of behavior (aka sleeper cells).

every 3 letter government agency in the world will be following any btc sent to ISIS funding addresses
easy to trace where the coins came from
even easier to catch the persons trying to cash them out of an exchange

using btc would be their downfall, even more detrimental than using cash imo

They also raised funds in dollars, pounds, euros and in many other regulated currencies. Did that regulation helped to stop funding them?

hahahaha ... yeah .. like this quote ... sums it up very well ... the basic purpose for an anonymous currency (or even a semi-anonymous identity obfuscating currency) is to conduct illegal activity ... period ... you know it i know it everyone knows it , its inherently obvious to anyone who's not fucking stupid ... having known about bitcoin for the last 2 years and been involved in speculative trading over that time frame and having made money doing so , i personally have never bought a single item using bitcoin ... it's wayyyy harder to actually conduct normal purchase business with bitcoin than simply using dollars via plastic numbers or even bank transfers ... the value sub 100 was driven almost exclusively by the silk road (drugs, assassins, pedophilia, supporting of terrorism, whatever other depraved horrific shit one could want) and the runup from 100 to 1200 was accomplished by mtgox using a *billion* fake non-existent dollars injected into their fraudulent exchange to steal something to the tune of 650,000 btc over the course of two months ... nevermind the literally hundreds perhaps thousands of scams thefts and "hacks" aka inside theft jobs of services and exchanges that have involved bitcoin ... it doesn't have a black eye ... it's a stroked out blind deaf dumb paraplegic with full blown aids ...

Maybe its not that astronomical because it has been used illegally.

[Bralex]

Dollars and bombs? Yuan and control? Pounds and funded wars?

'Bitcoin and freedom sounds better'

Terrorists are terrorists they will use and spend whatever currency they can to fund their activity's ask our governments they do.

I still do not believe it because if it was used by them then the price would be on a shuttle ready for a far away galaxy but its not yet.

So, if you want the politicians to decide who you can support or not support. How can that not end up being only support for the current politicians is legal? Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

IS is just another government, like the one in Saudi and the one called USG. As soon as they get control, they will convert from beheadings to love bombs. Hmm something wrong, that didn't happen in Saudi yet.
