Last night, I saw a movie called Unfriended: Dark Web wherein one of the main characters stole a laptop, which he later found out that it is owned by a member of an anonymous group in a Dark Web. This member sent him bitcoins totaling to $10m to make him do terrible things, dragging his friends into this mess. This got me thinking, I know it is probably possible to use crypto for dark web, but if this is how it is going to be, don't you think that this will make bitcoins and other altcoins dangerous? Can a person really use cryptocurrency for Dark Web?

PS: I am not planning to use cryptocurrency for dark web, I am simply asking if it is indeed possible and its dangers.

bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general has always been used in illegal acts such as payments and purchases in the dark web.
it has been mentioned that one of the main reason why bitcoin is popular right now is because illegal acts like dark web transaction used it as a means of their payment.
it may be hard to accept but this is the reality
