"If" Bitcoin as scam

[hyudien]

if some altcoin dev would instamine as much coins as satoshi and then just suddenly disappear, there would be huge amount of people screaming scam!

and they will gone from this crypto currency of course, i think.

Don't really believe that bitcoin can be a scam, many people already get a lot of money form it, and this scam is a bit long termed.

If bitcoins were a scam other altcoins would be a scam too, then.

just think in the future like what, if we can anticipation, why not to decrease any costs

[vero]

if bitcoin is scam ? I think certainly when prices rise, as now satoshi will sell a Part of coins that he have and sell all coins in 7 days before halving.

[calkob]

What on earth are you talking about???

Even if Satoshi declares Bitcoin as a scam, the bitcoin world has moved on beyond Satoshi.
The only influence that Satoshi would have is the control over the initial bitcoins mined.

that's just not how things works. you can't declare something as scam if you can't prove it.
it is true that we've gone beyond satoshi, though.

How if sathosi claim bitcoin as scam? How many your invest money to bitcoin? Are some dev altcoin will stay with their coin? Will sathosi go to jail after claimed it?

Nobody was forced to 'invest' in bitcoin so if the price of bitcoin increases then we are lucky that we got profit because i consider bitcoin also as a kind of investment, but in case it drops to $0 as you call it scam then nobody can accuse anyone and going to jail.

[Superways]

First,
Who is sathosi?

Second,
Who is satoshi?... nobody know so how could go to jail?

Bitcoin is bigger then satoshi... even if someone claim to be satoshi and say: "bitcoin is a scam!" wouldn't make any difference.

so, you very sure with your opinion?
i don't so, because like you know anything can be. as time goes, may there will come something with amazing technology to change it

The first thing is that I agree with raphma, that bitcoin is much bigger and stronger than satoshi, and bitcoin is now the property of people and they have full control on it and they know well that what is bitcoin and they know its legitimac, and if someone came to claim that bitcoin is scam then we cannot say that it is satoshi but it will be a full proof that it is a scammer and do not know about any thing of bitcoin.

Satoshi is the inventor of bitcoin and he respect it and he know that it is a better currency for the world and every inventor love his/her invention.

The Bitcoin is not a scam or it is built intentionally as a scam. It has bee proved in the last 7 years of its existence.

[Cybertron00]

Well I think there's a little probability of 1% that Bitcoin will be scam. If it will be scam, Im not happy and im not angry either because 0% of my porfolio is in bitcoin, I only earned it using free methods and I have traded to fiat many times so I have no regrets.

[QuestionAuthority]

Bitcoin is no more a scam than Amway or Melaleuca.

They're enablers not scams. They make new scams possible and breath new life in to old cons.

lol it cant be a scam anymore. if it was a scam to begin with then satoshi would make tons of money. and if he sold his bitcoins at this point he alredy has. but the fact it hasnt been done yet means it wont happen in the future.

Bitcoin=scam theory myth was debunked so many times in the past that it is tiring to discuss the same nonsensical thread again.

First of all what are the core arguments you can use to force your theory that bitcoin is a scam?  Anyone? Because I can't seem to find any logical ones.

Ah, don't you see, the core argument is that it is a scam because I need to farm my signature some more! If I generate a repeated and bland yet easy thread that I can respond to without having to put in any effort, it's a "scam" obviously!

There are no arguments that hold any substance that Bitcoin is a scam. People just say stupid shit.

Maybe satoshi is too stupid to claim bitcoin as a scam. He needs to think 1000x to claimed bitcoin as a scam and lose their profit from bitcoin. and he must already dream go to jail.

[mixan]

Then most of us that have invest into it are going to suffer which is very disappoint for most that have put more than $1000 into it. I am not that much into it but have exchange that much so far.

[dimox]

if bitcoin scam i just lost my time, because im not invest in bitcoin with my money

[angaper]

Actually the bitcoin economy already does not depend on anyone's design. What such alleged satoshi could affirm against bitcoin is actually idle because the current stability of bitcoins depends more on the strength of its community than on any individual person.

[relq]

What is that scam though ? Actually i don't care about that, because even bitcoin is a scam, bitcoin still has a big price and people will not care and continue their life using bitcoin.
