I have numerous times tried to explain people to NOT CONNECT BITCOINS WITH CRIME OR ANYTHING ELSE. Bitcoins are like guns which are good if used properly and may prove harmful if used wrongly. And as far as criminal cases through bitcoin are concerned. They don't happen everytime. Those cases are way too old and connecting same thing to all criminal attacks is hell absolutely wrong. We people enjoy our privacy, we love to do things online. This doesn't makes us criminals. Stop connecting bitcoins with all these.. And by the way, bitcoins aren't the only digital currency.. So think before you point the finger otherwise you may get it broken. -_-

They do so just to sell the news, but sadly average human being is obviously not smart enough to think on it's own.
There will always be those who will use bitcoin for illicit activity, just like people are using and abusing fiat as well - but noone is talking about banning EUR or USD ..
