This is the issue that was being thrown by the EuroPol and the UK Metropolitan Police. According to them bitcoin has played a huge role on the increasing criminality in their area. They added that a huge number of cybercriminals were using bitcoins in their activities.
This just shows that as bitcoin develops both advantages and disadvantages will tag along.
Bitcoin is neutral, the same with other technologies invented before. Any technologies can be use in either legal or illegal things. Despite of being a medium of crime, bitcoin is also used in legal businesses, the same with internet where we can find many criminal activities and yet a huge help in many people.
