Title: Virtual Tulips Post by: Sothh on July 22, 2013, 02:40:43 AM Thought I would start a simple Ponzi like game on the boards.
How it works: I will sell a virtual tulip for BTC0.01 The price then doubles. When the next person buys the tulip for BTC0.02 the current owner gets 150% what he paid, and I get 50%. After each round the price will double. How to play: Simply send the current price to 1AxJXz5YrpHaQC7aKwCJTT46y3ShtnqJZZ. I will update the current owner, and will payout to your address once the tulip sells again.

You think its worth running off over BTC0.01? :D Now if it gets up to 20 or 30... ;D Title: Re: Virtual Tulips Post by: 🏰 TradeFortress 🏰 on July 23, 2013, 12:32:22 PM Don't worry, you'll get there soon.

Title: Re: Virtual Tulips Post by: Sothh on July 23, 2013, 09:32:51 PM Isn't this just yet another ponzi scheme? Yep. Did you read the first line of the OP? ;) Nothing wrong with a ponzi as long as you know its such before hand. Anyone going to help poor howeth? His tulips starting to wilt.
