What the fuck i wrong with people these days?

Every day i join to the forum, i see more and more Ponzi promotion.

For me Ponzi is like a scam, but maybe im wrong and ponzi is a good thing.

I want to know ¿what the people on this forum think about ponzi?.

If you want to learn more about ponzi and why it can be a easy scam, please read:

Ponzi Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzi_scheme (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzi_scheme)

wow
sec give to ponzi scheme attention ad he public an how-to!!!
nice link!!!

i add italian wiki link to give some translated resource!!!
I'm keeping an eye on weekly ponzi...

the next payment go to address who had deposit on 2015-01-16 01:30:08....
just one hour and half after ponzi game was began!

who deposit in the last 4days and half,
 risk losing their money

I hate ponzi just like many others, but there is not much we can do.
As long as there are players enjoying ponzi, there will be new ponzi sites poping up.

Ponzi = scam
IMO, ponzi owner always create fake deposit and payment first to attract people.

I think the 'ponzi-shit' is subtle trolling of bitcoin.

Bitcoin deserves to be trolled right now ...  

I think it's entertaining. Keep the ponzis coming. That's what we are into!

We think it sucks but a small minority (ponzi operators/people profiting from ponzis) defend them. It's up to the admins to do something about them, and it seems they are gonna turn a blind eye. Guess we'll have to wait the craze out.

When people will get scammed enough hard on these ponzi sites,they will stop investing,but there are always new idiots which are greedy and will deposit.We will see when the ponzi time will be over,i hope.

Ponzi is an investment scheme. However BTC Ponzis cant scam without people knowing.
Other ponzis with real money can easily scam you

I've also mentioned this in another topic regarding this subject. Some people see it as a kind of investment game. IF the ponzi owner clearly states the risks, thus that's it's likely that you loose your investment if no new participants join the ponzi after you, and participants agree with that and take the risk with investing, I don't think it's a bad thing.

However, joining some strange websites that assure an XX profit on your investment in XX days is something else: if these websites are ponzi's and they do not clearly state this, they should be punished in my opinion. The least we can do is prevent the promotion of such websites on this forum.

that 's what i want to know , ponzi obviously a scam
why they didn't ban it

Much of the ponzi in the gambling section at the moment are ponzi based games. They are not like normal ponzi hiding everything without people knowing the risks. They are upfront about everything, everyone knows the risk. Kind of like how people play dice game they know the risk and chance of losing but with ponzi you rely on other people to get your pay.

Indeed, you know that there is a risk. However, you don't know anything about probability changes. In Dice games you do know, atleast, if they're legit.

However, you must be willing to take the loss if you participate in a Ponzi. Even though it looks nice sometimes, I think you're loosing more than you will receive in return ;).

Yes ;D
Along with this there are many outside variables that can affect the price which you cannot see coming such as website problems. I personally think Ponzi is not a good investment but I also think they have a place on this forum and people should be aloud to run them.

PONZI!!!
make me ROTFL!!!
for example!!!

take this example

http://weeklyponzi.com/

it start on 2015-01-16 00:00:01

the last who get payout was payed on 2015-01-16 01:30:08...

who have deposited after 2015-01-16 01:30:08 until now are not been payed.
the race end in 7H41min...
and a lot of people are waiting!!!

Maybe forum need a ponzi section now, that way ponzi guys can scam themselves. lol

In the past few days there were 10 ponzis being released daily. Now that number is decreasing. Soon the craze will be dead.

People want to win big.

If people dont say money to that ponzi trash, ponzi will die in some time. But dont know why last days we see a lot of ponzi in the forum, i dont like it, hope admin or some moderator kill that ponzis.

Unfortunately with ponzi many will also lose big... it's the nature of the game. Matter of fact it's the nature of bitcoin if you get bitcoin (Other than mining) someone must lose some of there bitcoin.

People who following ponzi scheme, because there are greedy about money.

To have a winner there must be a loser. Im thinking about ways to win big money, and ponzi is not in my list.
