Bitcoin's History with the Dark Web - Crypto Crash Course

in #steem5 years ago

Yes Bitcoin was used on a median called the dark web. The original thought for criminals was "hey if I could buy something illegal on the internet and not get caught I would" and so the inception of the deep web was created. The dread pirate roberts designed a marketplace for illicit things such as drugs and others. Why? No one knows maybe he thought it would bring him in a paycheck (no pun intended). And so bitcoin gained a'lot of fame and attention in the media for not only being innovative but a way for criminals to hide from law enforcement. So much has changed since then were now Bitcoin is mostly being used for more legal en devours as it stares away from illegal markets to trading portfolio's, who would have thought. Personally cryptographic coins should not be abused I think as it gives a bad reputation for something so viable and good as an asset. So when you get into cryptographic currency just think twice for the sake of things. Thank you and have a fun time using this new technology. Also check out this shared video from Youtube to get more insight on the topic.
