"Cryptocurrency kills people"

To consider how silly this line of argument is, consider that dihydrogen monoxide is the cause of death for thousands of people every year via accidental overdoses. Most of the deaths from it occur from using it in its liquid form, but in its solid form it causes chemical burns, and people die from contact with it in its gaseous form every year as well. Despite this it remains largely unregulated, people use the stuff every day and even let their kids play with it. Clearly we should ban... water.

Every technology that have been invented have the potential to kill people same also to give life. People travelling have accident then got injured while an ambulance is used to convey them to the hospital with which without the timely intervention a lot of lives would have been lost which then says mean that the same vehicle that led to some peoples death also led to sustaining the lives of other. Its true that those things he talked about are actually happening which no doubt people have been 'killed'.

However, we should also no be unmindful of the several people across the world that have been liberated because of this, the people who have been able to improve their standard of living that Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation can never reach no matter the percentage of their wealth they donated. The millions of start-ups that have been brought to life as a result of crypto funding or the myriad of freelancers that have been able to attract clients across the world because of crypto. Its on perception and I choose the life part.

Stress is when one finds a thing as a trouble. Trouble is there when one does not understand how things work. Perhaps people only need to be aware of what cryptocurrencies are, what it means and how it works. Knowledge is all we need to revitalize that dying viewpoint. So before you get eaten up by that so called 'stress', park it up and learn more of what all these things are all about.

Some people use the internet to spread child porn and to hack into companies and bribe people and also for human trafficking...

should we turn the Internet off, because some people misuse the Internet? Those people are only a small percentage of all the

people, using the technology. A large percentage of the people are using the Internet {Insert Bitcoin here} for legal business.

Why label the whole group as being rotten, because of the small amount of criminals that are misusing the technology?  

Cryptocurrency is not a lethal weapon and it can not kill people. You choose what you do with your life not bitcoin does it for you

This are classic most stupid facts about disadvantages of cryptocurrencies. Really sad to hear this from such person.

For me, it might be depend on how the people used this cryptocurrencies. It could be possibly yes if one  could gonna be used it in bad ways and it might be not killed people if they would be used it in the right ways or in other words it relies on the hand of the people.

That is his own point of view, everything have both negative and positive side, and it depeind on how you place your own view about crypto currency, so i don't think it kills

Why are all of you surprised that Gates would say something like this? Most of Gates wealth and prosperity came from government contracts. That viewpoint supports the US government.

The most heinous murderer in the world is the US Government. They imprison more of their own citizens than any other country in the world, relegating their citizens to a torturous life at the hands of desperate people. They have drone striked women and children without a declaration of war. They are the only country in the world to have used a nuclear bomb on human beings (men, women and children noncombatants).

The USA wants all of your financial transactions transparent so they can more easily steal your money (that’s the financial crime the USA wants to control). Under the umbrella of “civil forfeiture,” officers of the law in the USA confiscate millions of dollars in cash from thousands of innocent individuals every year.

The US Government is the largest terrorist organization in the world (controlling over 3/4 of the world through financial handouts, food handouts, political manipulation, threats, drone strikes, law enforcement actions or direct military involvement).

The largest drug dealer in the world is the US big pharma industry that controls the FDA. Tens of thousands of people every year are addicted to painkillers legally prescribed in the USA.

The largest purchaser and user of guns and bombs in the world is the USA. I’d say, the US Government is a terrorist that kills people 'in a fairly direct way'. 

Bitcoin is just leveling the playing field and it’s pissing off the biggest bully on the block.
