Ponzi owners say to users that is "120%" "LEGIT" "STABLE" and other shit. They do not say - you MIGHT lost lost your money.
When you place a bet @casino - you know what you are doing and you know before you place a bet that you can be a looser or a winner
that is main different between Ponzi and other gambling projects.
says "So, I could lose all my investment? -> Yes, that is the gamble you take when playing Ponzi games," and, "you should never deposit more than you can risk losing." Does this make PonziCoin not a ponzi?
If there are many people who like traditional gambling games and not Ponzis, then a category should probably be created, but I'm not sure where the line would be drawn between Ponzis and other games. Maybe traditional games must be based 100% on chance? But that'd eliminate many other games as well.
Are you serious? Casino games can be provably fair. You don't go in expecting to win. It's a chance.
If you're good at poker, you might go into a poker game expecting to win in a high percentage of games. Similarly, people skilled at playing Ponzis might expect to win often enough to get ahead. In both cases, newbies are very likely to lose a lot.
I think that it might actually be possible to make a Ponzi game trustless using advanced Bitcoin features like LockTime.
You aren't playing poker against the house. There is no house edge. Only a rake. You can't make the same comparison to traditional casino games.
There is a reason Ponzi are criminal. Why else would Bernie Madoff gone to prison? Is it no longer a game when it involves millions of dollars?
The reality is there are no set odds to the "game" of Ponzi because it is stacked against you from the start to only benefit the operator. If you fail to see this, I really cannot explain it any other way.
At least create a subforum for pyramid schemes.
