So why can't install Twisted on Python3.6? Does something wrong on my environment?
Did you compile Python 3.6 by yourself?
It seems your python version was compiled without bzip2 support. Here is a past ticket for the same issue: https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/8177
I'd suggest to use Miniconda to have a Python 3.6 environment and follow this instructions to install Scrapy.
