At least 870,000 bitcoins are associated with illegal activities. This is about $ 10 billion.

  • Darknet marketplaces - 585,000 BTC.
  • Stolen bitcoins - 204,000 BTC.
  • Scam project organizers - 98,000 BTC.
  • Other illegal activities 3,000 BTC.

One day, all these bitcoins will somehow hit the market.  Undecided


I have seen and heard severally that loads of fraudulent acts are now aided through the use of virtual or digital currency but that is not to say that Bitcoin has bad tenets. People frankly use money for whatever they deem fit as long as it is unde their possession as their property. i personally don't see  the need for attaching bitcoin to things as these because the dollar is never metnioned in this context.
