Because most MLM's turn out to be scams - especially those that accept anonymous currencies like LR or BTC.

I've thought about starting a wiki of how to run MLM style Bitcoin parties at home. If you have all the educational materials you need, it would be easy to sell them. There are already cash for gold parties like this.

Yes, BTC is ideal for most of the MLM companies. There are some scammy ones in the space but there are also some legit ones like Herbalife (HLF - $3.8B market cap) and NuSkin (NUS - $2.9B market cap) which are both publicly traded and do $4B and $2B in gross sales annually.

If you read their annual reports then you will understand that they are very large multi-nationals. One of the largest issues they have is making and receiving payments among their distributors or associates. One reason for this is because a distributor in Brazil may signup another one in Japan who signs up on in Australia. When the customer in Australia orders product then the ones in Japan and Brazil both earn a commission.

Additionally, one of the main reasons these companies do not move into other countries is because credit cards are not widely used there so they have problems receiving payments. Remember, Paypal and credit cards are mostly only in about 60 countries. So, there are huge untapped markets that Bitcoin could unlock.

For these MLM companies Bitcoin could open new markets, lower fees, reduce exchange rate uncertainty and greatly reduce other costs. So, yes, it is a very ideal currency and payment system for these MLM companies.

There were quite a few, google pirateat40 :)

Affiliate marketing is equivalent of real world MLM (where some actual product is offered, otherwise its just a ponzi).

Of course it's obnoxious and spammy, but hey, it works wonders for gambling stuff like bitvegas.

MLM = Many Lose Money

Not all, I Know of a global loyalty rewards program (some say it`s MLM some say it is not) dedicated to providing a rewarding and mutually beneficial relationship between their unparalleled community of international shoppers and merchants. A free membership provides shoppers with exclusive benefits from online shopping, gift card purchases, the  cash back card and mobile cash back with over 29,000 merchants at more than 150,000 locations! and growing as I type.

You can use btc through Dwoalla

“Cash back with every purchase” is the  motto.  With thousands of local, regional and international merchants and millions of members in more than 40 countries, this company has become the premiere global shopping community and loyalty program! Shoppers enjoy four ways to shop and earn cash back – online, in-store with their company Cashback card, with merchant gift cards and via their smartphones.
 
The  loyalty program is built on creating lasting relationships that benefit the merchants and members.  As the shopping community grows, the merchants receive more sales, and in turn, they can provide increased rewards. With loyalty, everyone wins!

Now if I could only get corporate to accept btc that would be a game changer  ;)

A free membership provides shoppers with exclusive benefits from online shopping, gift card purchases,

From another thread:

Comments please good or bad idea?

I've done this transaction (sold bitcoins, withdrew Dwolla and used the funds to buy a gift card through Lyoness.us), and it worked fantastically.

The shipping and handling (S&H) for the card(s) is a $5 per order unless purchasing $300 or more of gift cards in which case the S&H is waived.

The order is sent FedEx.

So this is a 1:1 cash-out method.  You send $300 Dwolla USD you get $300 worth of gift cards in the mail.  The only cost in that instance is the $0.25 Dwolla per-transaction fee*
[...]
But remember, because this is using Dwolla to fund you can cash out at an exchange that uses Dwolla and this method does not require any withdrawal to a bank account.

Anyone in the U.S. can sign up for Dwolla.  You do not need to link a bank account to Dwolla to use this.

MLM parties are not big money makers. They are social events. Sell a little over spot. Sell materials for and teach how to secure your wallets. Make up for small margins with volume. Talk about what you've learned. Have fun.

It's not true MLM unless higher ups are receiving commissions on the sales of people down-line.

I'm not trying to discourage the idea of Bitcoin parties, just be careful about promoting the concept as MLM if it's not because MLM has a pretty shitty reputation in general and you don't want to attach that baggage to yourself without reason.

Unless you were selling physical Bitcoins, there really isn't a way to use the MLM model exactly. I guess I like the idea of parties because people get excited and may want to buy things with bitcoins.

MLMs are ponzi schemes. Bitcoin's most popular activity in 2011 were ponzi schemes. The question isn't "Is MLM ideal for bitcoin", as that's a "duh". It's "is there still  a chance anyone in bitcoin isn't tired of ponzis?" and that answer is also "duh". Take a look at the lending subforum for proof.

I beg to differ... MLM and Ponzi Scheme are not the same thing, there're still some fundamental differences between them.

Taking MLM as Ponzi Scheme is somewhat like taking Bitcoin as Ponzi Scheme, focusing too much on minor similarities while neglecting obvious differences.

I LOL when people categorize MLM's as pyramid schemes. Do you realize MOST businesses are pyramid schemes?  What's wrong with a pyramid? It is simply the word scheme that gets a bad rep.

CEO
President(s)
Vice Presidents
Regional Managers
Middle Management
Regular Old Employees

Plug that into a pyramid if you'd like.

There are people who have made millions from legit MLM business. I just hate to see the good ones get lumped together with the real scams.

Why do I think MLM with Bitcoin is viable?

  • MLM itself is a practical business model when it's selling good products and services. (if it sells no goods but only to recruit, then it's a scam, ponzi scam, what's so ever.)
  • Virtual products and services are ideal to sell through MLM. Virtual products or services, such as ebooks, music or video files, and numerous online services, such as linode VPS, are almost with fixed cost, yet with immense potential if they are proven to be popular, therefore guaranteeing endless flow of profit for those who participate MLM.
  • The market cap of Virtual products and services is going to be much bigger than that of "real estates".
  • Bitcoin is guaranteeing more participants since members could come from anywhere of the world.
  • Building an Online MLM team with bitcoin is much easier than doing off-line, since traditionally, building an MLM team had to begin from acquaintance, but now, a participant is not bound to his or her circumstances. Imagine you can recruit through google adsense with a simple webpage.
  • Last but not least, albeit not everyone would agree: todays income with BTC is probably going to be multiplied by itself, since Bitcoin is essentially a deflating currency.

Am I missing anything?

The Direct Selling Association, a lobbying group for the multi-level marketing industry, reported that in 1990 twenty-five percent of members used MLM, growing to 77.3 percent in 1999.[17] Companies such as Avon, Electrolux, Tupperware,[18] and Kirby all originally used single level marketing to sell their goods and later introduced multi-level compensation plans.[19] By 2009, 94.2% of members were using MLM, accounting for 99.6% of sellers, and 97.1% of sales.[20] The DSA has approximately 200 members [21] while it is estimated there are over 1,000 firms using multi-level marketing in the United States alone.[22]

At the extreme of the spectrum, an MLM selling nothing but trying to profit only through recruiting new members, is pretty much the same as Ponzi Scheme.

^ Right.

There are definitely some fraudulent MLM businesses that do exist and only profit when new members join. Most MLM businesses DO reward you for building a sales team, but they are indeed selling an actual product or service.


To answer Matthew from eariler...
I personally know and have met some people who have made $1 Million plus with LegalShield. Also I know Mary Kay has created some millionaires. I'm sure Amway has too. In fact, the Orlando Magic play in the Amway Arena (or Amway Center).

MLM and Pyramid schemes are already illegal in some countries, too many people got burned! and yes there's always the story about the guy that earned a fortune, but at what cost, how many thousand people lost money buying high priced products that could be bought cheaper elsewhere, or worst, they buy stuff they don't even need, just to earn the "commission" later, also how many friendships ruined and family problems caused by MLM schemes, i saw people losing money (bad) and losing friends (even worst) after they recommended it to someone else...   just my 2 cents.

BTCMLM Development Stages
Stage 1: Open registration
BTCMLM will only release 21 initial invitations, and that’s all. No initial invitation will ever be added within one year. After that, BTCMLM will release only 12 more invitations each year.

Everyone interested in joining BTCMLM, should have valid invitation code to register successfully.

Commissions will be sent according to systematic calculation every 24 hours. (GTM00:00) (See detail commission plan)

Stage 2: Open APIs
After BTCMLM has more than 2,100 registered members, we’ll release BTCMLM APIs to the public, by which developers can sell their own virtual products or services through the formidable BTCMLM sales force.

At the same time, BTCMLM will exhaust every possibility of cooperating with online companies who have already accepted BTC as regular payment, and sell their virtual products and services.

And, this means members of BTCMLM will have an endless stream of virtual products and services to sell, which means continuous profiting possibilities.

Stage 3: Go IPO in the Bitcoin community
After BTCMLM has more than 21,000 registered members, BTCMLM will sell 10% shares to the public, and the first 21,000 members of MLM have preferential rights to buy the shares. BTCMLM will always publish its revenue book in real time after its initial launching.

This looks more legit... It is basically a Bitcoin Wallet that pays interest.
Then there is an affiliate marketing aspect to it...
Coinbase paid 0.1 BTC to affiliate them for awhile... This company apparently, instead of simply paying for leads, is paying percents of future lead earnings... It could not hurt to try for some small amounts..

Run from any MLM business no matter what currency they use. The people at the top get rich on the labor and money of their new recruits. I have never seen one that actually worked for people other than those at the top. Once the cult speak wears off people are left with broken dreams and empty wallets.

In my opinion, the question is not"Is MLM ideal for bitcoin? ", but the usage of Bitcoin. Only encouraging the use of Bitcoin through a series of markeing strategies that involves advertising, promoting, and as payment, it can be developled well.

Is Multi-Level Marketing ideal for bitcoin?

I found a MLM website using BTC, but before I join it, I want to ask fellows in this forum, why wasn't any popular MLM service before?

any idea?
I think it is not good idea. as we know, the price of bitcoin is not as stable as money. if it later when your business goes down then the price of bitcoin. surely you will lose. and one by one the members left the business. and businesses will be closed. If you still want to follow that you should first exchange BTC you.  ..
just a suggestion :)

Quote from: Jim Wang at bargaineering.com
1. Focus is More on Recruiting than Selling

One of the first things to watch out for is a focus on recruiting rather than selling. If you are being recruited in order to recruit more people of your own, rather than actually focus on selling the product, that might be a red flag. Consider whether or not there is a lot of focus on getting you to recruit more “team members,” instead of focus on acquiring customers. If the recruits are the customers, that could be a red flag.

2. Poor Training

What sort of training and support do you receive? How are your questions answered? If you are asking tough questions, and they are deflected with homilies on positive thinking, you could be looking at a MLM scam. Also, consider the training situation. Are you provided with actual business techniques and support? If the training consists of how to convince recruits, or tips on selling to friends and family, your “home business opportunity” might actually be a work at home scam.

3. Pressure to Pay for More

Are you being pressured to pay for more product? You might be asked to join a “fast track” or become “elite” by purchasing a great deal of inventory all at once. Or, you might be pressured into buying an expensive business package in order to get the business support you need. If you are asked to pay for extra training (beyond attending an annual conference or convention) on a regular basis, or if you are asked to pay for basic office supplies, you might be in trouble.

Be especially wary of those that ask you to put your costs on a credit card, or encourage you to take a home equity loan or line of credit to pay for this “business investment.”

4. Sales Tactics Brought to Bear on You

Do you feel as though you are the subject of a high-pressure sale when you talk to the MLM representative? You might be told that you have to make a decision right now in order to get a good deal on the initial kit, or to buy in at a “special” price, it could be a scam. Most legitimate companies allow you to talk it over with your family, or sleep on your decision.

5. Seems Too Good To Be True

As with everything in life and in purchases, you need it to pass the too good to be true “smell test.” Are the claims about the product outrageous and hard to really prove? Is there are a lot enthusiasm about the “amazing” program, without much to back it up? Watch out for anything that seems too good to be true. Chances are that it’s actually a scam.

Ponzi schemes do not need to offer any specific rate of return for them to be a scam.

The reason the MLM is often associated with Ponzis is because they act in very similar ways.

Regardless most MLM "programs" are only profitable when you take into consideration the amount of time you put into them for the very early adopters.

I think Multi Level Marketing is not ideal way for bitcoin. All we know that MLM is full of trash talk and lie to make people believe that they are going to be reach when they will be part of a team in exchange of money and to encourage you to buy and resell their health and beauty products. But in bitcoin you can do a business without any buying of products or any paying a membership fee to be part of team. I can say that because I was part and member of one big MLM before so I know bitcoin did not need a MLM strategy because bitcoin dont need an hyper marketing or promotion to make people believe that it will make our lives better.

Schemes and plots designed to attract consumers with attractive messages may seem like quick money making machines, but in fact they are a sort of scams carefully plotted to defraud the innocent people. They might look very fascinating to eye, but the real motive is to mislead the innocent people. And the success of such MLM's owes to the fact that the people are unaware and unknowingly in anticipation of high returns risk their money.

"Many of these types of investment scams ask for people to send a minimum of bitcoin so they can expect a bigger payout in the future. Furthermore, a lot of these shady organizations run under a Multi-Level-Marketing (MLM) business model. MLMs consist of people who are selling in a pyramid or referral type of marketing system. The business model requires recruiting more people to fund the entire network and has always been a controversial business plan. Companies can often be seen operating in this manner using bitcoin within their operations and accrue revenue from direct sales and downline distribution. And yes, there are legal MLM structures in many markets that run legitimate business operations and should not be considered Ponzi schemes."

MLM people have played and are playing a different game on the name of Bitcoin. If you notice most of these MLM came into existence after Bitcoin started gaining value after when its value was $500-$1000. MLM are just fooling people with a fix return which is practically very difficult to give.
I recommend you not to be a victim of such scams.

There is nothing wrong with MLM, even herbalife still survives until now, but this business network method is not suitable for crypto because it only focuses on the velocity of money investment.

MLM can push the price of Bitcoin because if they want to invest in MLM they need BTC.  I strongly discourage everyone to invest on this scheme it will harm you and they can blind you for their false promises.

It is ok to join this kind marketing in which they will use Bitcoin platform for their investments but make sure that their projects are legal because most of them are scams in which they will just steal your Bitcoins in the end especially if the offered earnings are so good to be true, better if you will invest directly into trading or buy Bitcoins and hold them for long term investments.

Not all MLM's are scams, There are many good MLM programs and bitcoin is just as useful for that as any other transaction.
I know a company that does all the back office work for this type of business-mlm software, crypto ico etc. and they are certainly not scammers in fact quite the opposite-they employ some extremely talented people and have been in existence for over 10 years.

MLM cannot be applied to bitcoin, because MLM will make the derivative price expensive, because bitcoin is not an item but a digital product. While how MLM works is looking for downlines, more and more downline income is getting bigger. In this way, the price of bitcoin is not standard, while bitcoin as global money changes rapidly.

Bitcoin's image is increasingly polluted because MMM includes btc as a payment option, but it cannot be avoided considering that ponzi fans are still too high, lack of product marketing and only spinning on investment funds will cause painful failures, this business method will not last long and long term according to the promised bonus for the highest tree branch. This is not ideal for the development of bitcoin, even worse than gambling.

A new form of image advertising for bitcoin through multi-level marketing. Many investors consider it a form of bitcoin advertising that will bring a lot of negative impact to bitcoins. But I think it will affect bitcoin well. There are now many multi-level companies and they are developing very well. Thus, through multi-level marketing, bitcoin is also more developed.

Most multi level marketing programs do not take you up the ladder without hard work. There was multi level marketing I invested using bitcoin which till date it is still functioning but it takes professional marketers to gain a reasonable amount of money through MLM.

It is ok to join this kind marketing in which they will use Bitcoin platform for their investments but make sure that their projects are legal because most of them are scams in which they will just steal your Bitcoins in the end especially if the offered earnings are so good to be true, better if you will invest directly into trading or buy Bitcoins and hold them for long term investments.
absolutely right it would be better if it was invested in trading or hold bitcoin until it got results. than we have to invest with the lure of a big reward but a scam

I have bad experience with MLM and bad stereotypes are inherent in the community, so it seems that‘s not good for Bitcoin. Indeed not all MLMs are bad, but this can open a gap for scammers to carry out their actions which will hurt the reputatio (http://renovasi-rumah.net)n or financial loss.

For me, MLM is ideal using bitcoin if it is legit. I mean in a MLM " Multi Level Marketing" as I understand to become a member you will pay of the said amount but it should have a product in return. Be aware that most of MLM also are scam.

There are some legit MLM programs and I now of a company that does the back office work on both MLM and ICO there is absolutely no reason that MLM should not use bitcoin or any other crypto as it's prefered currency. In many ways it makes more sense to use bitcoin as there is no conversion issues with cross border trading.

I don't think Bitcoin is ideal as an MLM investment. MLM investments should have a product to make them legit. Bitcoin is not a product and does not have a product to back it up. Many have used Bitcoin as an MLM or a networking scheme in the past and most of them did not turn out well. Bitcoin and MLM simply does not go together.

MLM accepting bitcoins and giving rewards in bitcoins are scam, there is no fixed return in bitcoin which MLM companies claim, either bitcoins can be earned thr mining or trading, companies claiming fixed return or referral income against bitcoin investment are basically scamming investor, be aware of such companies and do not invest your hard earned money with such frauds.

MLM is not itself a scam, but many scam projects use it to get more people in - it is a perfect tool to build up a pyramid scheme. All the most important Scams had a MLM like Bitconnect or Bitclub.

The owners don't have to care for marketing. The MLM system is designed that existing members advertise the project and get new members in. I would be very carefully if a project uses MLM, the past has shown it's used often for scams.
I addition it's very profitable for the founders because they will get a few percent of all investments from participants joining after them.

A good investment opportunity doesn't need MLM which is only a redistribution from many late investors to a few early investors.

is there any previous example?

Everyone always welcome to be the first sucker.

(although yes there have been others)

😂😂😂 the way you put it is funny.

Most MLMs are ponzis. Everyone just need to read up more.
For the non-ponzi MLMs... they just do their hard sell on their company's products. They are only trying to make money. Only 1 in about 300 who join MLM actually make money. So...

Honestly... people who try to do MLM with bitcoin are basically leveraging on suckers.

Probably more so than not, because the survivability of bitcoin is directly dependent on how many users use it at the moment. Network marketing has never had a good reputation, as it was not transparent and as a result people lost their savings. With regard to bitcoin, this scheme may well be working.

The most MLMs are ponzi schemes, if the company accepts bitcoin it is bigger chance that they want to scam users. I think if there would be some real product MLM (like FMCG, electronics, cars etc.) low structure bonuses (like 5%) and smart contract used for payments for products which gives money back when you didn't get a package.
But as I seen there are only BTC matrixes, BTC adrevshares and faucets which 80% doesn't pay.

I think MLM is not ideal for bitcoin, because bitcoin is a digital currency, so if you use the MLM method the price will be higher.

Multi Level Marketing is ideal for only one thing, providing the opportunity for lying and misrepresentation of substandard or non existent products to profit from gullible "downline" investors, often family and friends.
It is unfit for purpose in today's communication world, far too expensive for legitimate product promotion, the only benefit being 'plausible deniability' of the endemic false claims of profitability made by the so-called independent marketeers.
Any crypto schemes that offer an MLM structure should be treated with even more caution than usual.
