Title: Newbie here, simple question... (aka Great Simoleon Caper) Post by: Rindill on June 16, 2011, 01:04:10 PM How do you convince people this isn't a scam?
It seems an awful lot like a pyramid scheme to me. People on the ground floor get really really rich, and create a whole new currency out of thin air. AMD cards mine more money, so AMD adds fake value to their cards, selling more. Everyone I told about bitcoins say its a pyramid scheme... so how do I convince them otherwise?

Post by: BitVapes on June 16, 2011, 01:20:52 PM maybe you shouldn't try... some people are just stubborn and futher attempts at convincing them of something and they will just keep getting more defensive and building a wall between them and everything you try to tell them.
some people just have to discover things on their own. Title: Re: Newbie here, simple question... (aka Great Simoleon Caper) Post by: Rindill on June 16, 2011, 01:25:25 PM http://www.quora.com/Bitcoin/Is-the-cryptocurrency-Bitcoin-a-good-idea
