Now that BTC has improved itself into the next bullrun up to over $30.5k rising $2k within the past 24 hours, we can discuss this documentary which I found while searching youtube a few months ago:

Crypto: The World’s Greatest Scam. by James Jani

So don't get put off by the name of the video as it just their viewpoint by this rather well known youtuber who usually does a thorough investigation for subjects that he reports on, does explain why they have come to this conclusion about bitcoin being the world's greatest scam.

Late nite television host John Oliver talks about Alex Mashinsky of now defunct Celsius cryptocurrency lender last night:

To draw more customers into the ponzi scheme, the founder even wore a star wars helmet to look more with the times towards his audience base during one of their promotional livestreams.

I didn’t watch the video because my network wasn’t stable.Bitcoins is not a scam and majority of us can attest to this but the unbelievable will for ever have a doubt. we may not outrightly blame them because the awareness, publicity, success stories etc are not out there like the negatives.
Yes, a lot believe that Bitcoin isn’t a good investment because of the rise and fall of bitcoin but trust if one understands the market you can make cool cash. My opinion

Of course we are not saying it is a scam, it is a talking point to get your views on this and to see what others are saying on the subject.
Such as what Chamath Palihapitiya who holds alot of bitcoin has attested with this recent statement he had made on a podcast Bitcoin is dead in America:

It is more or less to find out why they have come to this conclusion and if they have changed their views since.
