All of these things are misconceptions that I hear all of the time. The biggest misconception that I hear that drives me nuts is that bitcoin is anonymous and is mostly used for illegal activities. There’s been a number of studies from very affluential outlets that have done on chain analysis that have dispelled this myth time over time; but yet we keep hearing this nonsense. I’m hopeful it fades away as time goes on.

Yes, I think the news has made too many stories about bitcoin for crime. I think probably it is not very anonymous for governments who know how to find the right info. Regular money is better, because the block chain is public and permanent, there is no way to track dollars sitting somewhere hidden in a basement.
