Well, we don't want to be dishonest. We will not say something like: this is an investment thing or that payouts are guaranteed or other BS. It is a ponzi - but a fun one that will either keep paying out or will explode at some point and pay out a big jackpot to the last participant. 

If you want a satirical Ponzi: see our "government simulation" By the way - is has a 1100ETH jackpot and it is growing: governmental.github.io/GovernMental/

So the 4 50ETH blocks are finally payed out - now payouts will go much faster because now it it only filled with 1ETH (1.1ETH) payouts.
The "carrot" is now 1100ETH and it will keep the Ponzi alive for a LONG time.

We applaud to every none copy/paste dapp like this one. Check out ours: It is also a ponzi with some twists that make a more interesting: the main thing: it has a jackpot of >1090 ETH - if you invest at least 1BTC and no one invests after you for 12h you win!

This mechanism ensure that there is always an inventive for people to get in even late when payout speed slows down: check https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1424324.new#new for more details or directly: governmental.github.io/GovernMental/

There are two ways to look at it: first: if you think it will stop soon - then chances are good to get the 1100 ETH jackpot - however - we believe it will be around for month and even if it takes some time it will eventually pay out. We are going to improve it soon so that users can see what is going on without a geth node. We will also integrate shapeshift so that it will be easier for Bitcoin user to use it. With more money going in payouts will accelerate.

Our goal must of course be that it will run for way more time - until now we made not even 10% of the 1000ETH we put in it - so we will start advertising it more to get our initial investment back.

Hey - yet another Ponzi. But is has a twist that should make it more interesting. Usually in a Ponzi you invest in the hope that people invest after you. So if you invest late payout takes longer time until no one is willing to invest. So I added a nice twist - in this Pozi you can win 2 ways: a) enough people invest after you so that you get your money back +10% OR: no one invests after you (for 12h) then you win a big jackpot of >1000ETH. So you should invest because you win both ways - a) people invest after you (you get +10% back) or b) no one invests after you - you win 1000ETH.

You need to run a geth (or other node) with rpc to view the status. Of course the contract can be viewed and verified here: https://etherchain.org/account/0xF45717552f12Ef7cb65e95476F217Ea008167Ae3#code

Over 1600ETH have already been payed out: https://etherscan.io/address/0xF45717552f12Ef7cb65e95476F217Ea008167Ae3#internaltx
