Abstract: Cryptocurrency trading is shrouded in confusion in terms of criminal confrontation and proof, and it requires the involvement of criminal law to comply with the principles that govern the law. Accordingly, there is a need for solidarity on the international level to define the legal method in order not to misuse cryptocurrency, and in particular Bitcoin. While legal accuracy in this confrontation is desirable, it depends on the balance between the security imperatives to confront terrorism resulting from the misuse of cryptocurrencies and the requirements to protect human rights. Thus, it comes as a major challenge in criminal law to confront the consequences of dealing in cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) for crimes that may lead to security risks, public order in the state of law, and human rights challenges which are often committed by an exceptional intelligent criminal, and the creation of standards that must be adhered to confront such crimes.
