Bullshit.
If you bought something on Silk Road with bitcoin, the blockchain will remember it forever and possibly reveal your identity.

How about this?

By following this logic so they shall also ban the dollar, euro, pound sterling and so on... But wait, even if it happens then what? They will use another means of payment simple as that. So to continue their trip with acid, silver, gold, copper, the diamond should be banned too.

But wait, when money didn't exist people were trading (I give you tomatoes in exchange of sugar, then the sugar is exchanged for a fish and so on) Going deep into this, everything should be banned. I hope in the future we will still be allowed to breathe

Here is intersting and funny post from reddit, I guess you guys will wanna check it out: https://redd.it/86b9tn [it relates to this]


First of all of course they can track everything as blockchain within bitcoin is fully transperent. Secondly you could technically store malwares BUT they won't execute because you will have to spread the code within blocks because your malware will prob contain a lot of data. Maybe theres already one stored who knows.

If it is true then the reputation of bitcoin will be lost much after this event. Currently I can not believe this information because the article writer is not very prestigious. I just believe the information from the big and prestigious newspapers. I'm waiting for people to talk about this and make my conclusions.

Most crimes are paid using US dollar. Should people ban bucks then? Bitcoin is just a tool, it is not untraceable and can be confiscated. How come US marshalls sold around 10k BTC? They took it from criminals. So nothing wrong with bitcoin, and it pisses me off that banks use this trick to put more regulation on our beloved crypto.

Child pornography, sell and buy drug and another crime activity has been there before Blockchain technology founded, I have see it at the darkweb and they use another way or their own way to make a payment.
For example if they use cash money to do crime activity, should we blame money for it? No, we can't !
So we should learn more about this problem, that is right if use bitcoin make payment at crime activity to be easier, but we should see the advantages of bitcoin for our future, bitcoin can change our future if we use it in good way.
And if all country or government banned bitcoin, crime activity can be take place at the darkweb, so that's working good if government banned bitcoin? I think that is not right choice for it.
Every technology or whatever that, that must have good sides and bad sides, so that depend by how we use it.

can noob imbeciles ease up on the upper case for posting fud and nonsense.

why even reply to such a retarded posts

blockchain is not about to be banned because 0.001% of dirt bags that want to taint every thing they can with this stuff

next ban the internet

ban people

low level fud

That's precisely the point. The problem is to use this kind of nasty activities in order to accuse bitcoin. This makes me sick, for it is another pathetic attempt of discrediting a new technology, but based, once more, on pure air.
Technology itself can't be bad, but the use humankind makes of it. If most of the humans suck, well, this is not technologys fault at all.

Well, this is really bad. This is what I have been reading a lot about for the past few days, and I can say this is by far the strongest reason governments worldwide will ban Bitcoin. Nonetheless, I think governments are skeptical about outright banning considering that all things banned find its way to curb the law, thereby multiplying even more in the black market. Worse, governments do not get to tax those illegal forms of money-making enterprises. Like for instance, those of illegal drugs. Governments worldwide ban it, in general, but they know how strong the market of drugs is at present. What is killing them is the fact that no matter how strong the market of drugs is, they do not get to tax the same.

Hayz, another black shit staining propaganda. Why even bother?, some people with ill intention will  create a reason to hedge the progress of bitcoins. almost all of these cases are already deep rooted in the internet, and since we live in internet, why bother?. These kind of services won't stop any time soon because everyone has free access and can stored their ill gotten data on bockchain. So don't fret it's nothing new.
