yes we need a few more stories like this, or else the ban will be too blatant<p>(btw i m sure some woman used USD to move cash to ISIS, but it was never news)

This is more of a fault of the citizen than a fault of the currency.<p>A US woman could of used paypal to move cash to Islamic State and it wouldn&#x27;t be nearly as buzzy, but since it&#x27;s bitcoin it&#x27;s easy to scapegoat

It&#x27;s a shame the transaction and subsequent flow of money can&#x27;t be traced on a tamper-proof decentralized public ledger the way it could be with cash...

propaganda There again, I find the BBC journalists themselves try to do a good job, against sometimes quite obvious manipulations from above. The headline here is of course blatant propaganda or at best &quot;click bait&quot;, but the content is perhaps attempting subterfuge?
