Bitcoin is not a ponzi scheme because when talking about ponzi new member paid old member and in that of bitcoin it's not robbing Peter to pay Paul you invest and get your coin instantly to your wallet not waiting for new member to join and pay you

Yes, you are! And bitcoin is far different from that ponzis schemes with dead and raw projects they just hitting & run money from noob investors and used bitcoin as payment methods where at this point newbies understand and gained negative impression about bitcoin. In bitcoin we can achieve financial freedom independently without deceiving people and building broad networks like ponzis do.

I had arguments with my friends who are always tagging bitcoin with negativity. Today, we argued and I educated them on bitcoin and Ponzi scheme. To me Ponzi scheme is when developers takes money from new entrance to pay early birds,rinse and repeat until they raise enough and vanish. But bitcoin is not like that. Do you think I am right?
Bitcoin is currently considered a ponzi form and is intended to scam. These are the intentions of many people and I think it's not true. Satoshi has created Bitcoin with a passion and I believe he will not use it to cheat people. |

We never want to experience a Ponzi scheme, right (especially in our bitcoin); thus, the need for an extra research and learning about what is bitcoin all about is very relevant. However, in my own view, bitcoin is not a Ponzi (I have my three views); first, it takes highly amount of investment with high risk - consideration would only matter on the value of bitcoin`s price; second, though decentralized many people know the activity of bitcoin; and third, the law of demand and supply - which definitely the running fuel of prices. So obviously, there`s a reason behind bitcoin`s prodigy.
I argue. 1) The amount of "investment" has risen only lately. 2) activity of bitcoin fabricated not organic. 3) demand and supply are purely speculative. 5% of all coins change ownership EVERY DAY!! but there is virtually nowhere You can spend Your coins. What does it tell to You? |

I agree first of all because bitcoin's developer/s have already disappeared and therefore there is nothing to ponzi unlike alt coins that actually have active developers capable of redoing the codes. Bitcoins are far from being a ponzi scheme because it is merely a coin no one controls. |

The decentralized aspect if bitcoin shows a clear image that explains why bitcoin isn't a ponzi scheme. Ponzi is only profitable to the early birds and it is not very sustainable. Bitcoin has been here since 2009 and even without an owner, it has sustained itself from then till date. No Ponzi scheme can pull that off.
There are many more reasons why they shouldnt be compared but I'll rest my case.

Blockchain technology and Ponzi are completely different things. In fact, the Ponzi model is a form of borrowing money from one person to pay for another, and the borrower will have to pay a larger sum than the loan amount. But Bitcoin does not work based on this principle

Pozi is considered as a multi-level business model with many fraudulent nature, if you do business but attract more people in business you will quickly be up the rank and bitcoin unlike the pozi model.

Ponzi scheme - you have no control in your investment, other people hold your money and profits and ponzi scheme is scam. But in bitcoin, if you buy bitcoin the decision is yours when to sell or hold and no one will stop or control you.

Bitcoin is not a Ponzi scheme , for bitcoin investment you are the one who will manage your investment, while in the Ponzi scheme your investments is on pyramidic where in your profit is get from the newly enrolled members to be given to the old investors, in bitcoin your are on your own management, if you buy or sell your coins in the coin market.

Definitely not one of those.
You can argue that there are 90% of those that are held in 1000 or less wallets and that's how you can control the whole market.
If those are smart and really want to change somethig here they can, but you don't really know what a human being can do when he has power...

No, Bitcoin is not a ponzi scheme. If you look at the use cases supported by bitcoin then you will see that it has certain usage and it not just speculative. People who do not know much about crypto will surely consider calling bitcoin a ponzi scheme.

Those who say Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme, they don’t know Bitcoin, and they don’t know about Ponzi schemes....

One thing is to know something and another is to understand it's ways. Bitcoin is not a ponzi scheme. It is working on it own to build it's own castle not depending on anybody

There is a easy way to know that Bitcoin is not a Ponzi Scheme, look up the definition of Ponzi Scheme: A form of fraud in which belief in the success of a nonexistent enterprise is fostered by the payment of quick returns to the first investors from money invested by later investors.
