Until bitcoin has real utility, it has to be a bubble. All the dark web stuff can't be a constant driver of price. Most people are gambling with no intent to participate in the dark web.

Bitcoin is not even the best coin for the darkweb anymore.

Transaction costs are high, Transactions take forever to pass, and it's not even really anonymous.
