Hello, dear users.
Being new to the world of cryptos, I got myself invested in a few coins and have been mining some as well.
Last month, as part of my research, I can across this HYIP site called Control-Finance that literally got me hyped. I couldn't take my thoughts off it. Even after all the red flags, I decided to invest 150$ just to be my own example - I wanted to hurt myself financially to teach myself a lesson of never even considering something like this again. You know, some people learn the hard way.
Anyway, it has only been 10 days, and the flight has been smooth.
We all know how Ponzi schemes end - there will be tears. Or... will there? The thing is, while I had clearly different reasons to participate, I think a majority of people actually do it knowing well that their profits will run for a few months before the company goes belly up. The point is, they will probably still make a profit. With the interest rate they offer, you don't need, even one month (specifically, 4th month) is a return you will never get lending your money to a bank.
So what do you think? Is it ethical to choose to participate in an obvious scam knowing you will profit while somebody else down the line will suffer?Leave your thoughts, ladies and gentlemen.
