http://btc-stars.com/site_images/main_logo.pngURL: http://btc-stars.comWe want to welcome you to BTC-Stars which is similar to a couple of other BitCoin websites already setup - only better Tongue. The concept is very simple and most of you will have seen this type of thing before. You purchase a BTC-Star for a certain amount, the price is increased and re-listed on the site for another user to purchase. When it is re-sold the previous owner will receive their FULL payment back PLUS 65% of the increase, which works out to be just over 30% of their first purchase. No-one can every lose BitCoins as long as the BTC-Star keeps on selling and we WILL NOT stop re-listing the BTC-Star EVER! Now what makes our site unique and special is that when the BTC-Star goes on to sell again and again and again, the owner picks up a % of each of the next 3 three sales. The previous owner will pick up a further 15%, 10% and 5% as it sells. With all the calculations and maths worked out, anyone who buys a BTC-Star will receive over 60% profit of their initial purchase. Also unlike other websites, we do no reset the BTC-Stars on a daily basis nor pump up the price ourselves. All transactions are recorded and viewable in Blockchain. New BTC-Stars will be added every so often but will NEVER be removed. The more people buying, the more people make money, spread the word and get involved. Feedback is welcomed - positive below - negative privately ha ha Grin Enjoy!!! URL: http://btc-stars.comMOD EDIT: Please note that this is pretty much a ponzi scheme (look it up if you don't know) and you're not guaranteed to make your money back.

And we all know that what you want to look for in a Bitcoin website is the one with the best tongue.

As long as the BTC-Stars keep selling you will make your money back. Most people know and understand sites like this and yes its a slight gamble but a genuine way of making more BTCs. Why are people so against sites like this?

Nah, MLM does not require more and more people in the system. However this is the definition of a ponzi scheme.

At least you are confessing it's a Ponzi scheme and the last one is the loser (although not in your opening post). I think Ponzi schemes are worth than gambling, because they push you to promote this crap.

Ponzi schemes are actually a decent profit for the early adopters. Partially the reason a lot of news outlets were calling Bitcoin a ponzi scheme in the beginning.
Hell, some still do :/

Are you aware what you are doing is illegal? You can't sell a Home Simpson mug without proper licensing, for example.

I dont understand the hate either. In casino or ponzi other players have to pay for the winner. Casino or site owner is not going to do this. Its not faucet. Then whats the difference between those two? Its just different play style. In casino you are loosing small to win big and in ponzi you are winning small hoping to not loose big. But the chances are the same. Also people dont even know how many ponzi schemes are in real world. Look at auctions. People are buying expensive old paintings or old cars and selling it later with profit. Paying really huge money for this. Why not jump them and say they are stupid? Or markets, or even housing. If value drops someone will be left with that bag.

People come in here ready to invest money into BTC and go blind with the possibilities. These "services" add nothing, where as the other things you mentioned like cars, paintings, houses are actual things that can be used when bought.

A value drop is not what defines a Ponzi scheme. In Ponzi schemes it's certain that someone will lose, because there is no other way. E.g. Buying an old painting isn't one. There are people with a lot of money that appreciate this art and want it.

Then you are against all gambling sites because they all are doing the same. There is really no difference between gambling and ponzi because in both games are losers and winners. As long as its not a scam that is. These "services" add nothing, where as the other things you mentioned like cars, paintings, houses are actual things that can be used when bought.
Well some people like to play them, i dont know if you noticed. As for expensive paintings or old cars? They are often hidden in safe places like paintings or not used at all like old expensive cars. People are buying them because they know its price will rise because of limited amount. How is that different than ponzi scheme? I know you can still sell this with a loss but there are also chain games that refunds your virtual item if you wont sell it like this one btctreasure.com

Sorry but its not really true. I saw nice paintings that are very cheap only because its author is still alive or not known. Also someone can just paint another copy of expensive painting and it will be worthless. Why? Because something else is driving the price. To me this is exactly like ponzi scheme.

Sounds to me more like a tullip mania IMO not a ponzi though...

It is actually quite a cool concept. If you are able to constantly drive new traffic, it will always grow. And your userbase will also spread it as its in their best interest. On a side note, it falls into the Ponzi class yes.
