I don't think OP understands how things work clearly with Bitcoin as their post is litered with fallacies all across the board. Many of you have clarified most errors but I want to discuss specifically the idea of money. You see the current system is already digital money, so you arguing that Bitcoin being numbers on a screen is a moot point. Bitcoin is a lot more than just digital money, it goes against the nature of everything you said but for all the right reasons. Why would we want the government to control the money supply when all that ever did was reduce purchasing power? I suggest you do some more research before you make bold claims such as this.

My brother thinks this same thing. And people with this mindset are always adamant in their thinking. Is it big strange that someone with such thought would have gone through the bother of registering in this site, paid the fees in bitcoin and still has the nerve to post such?

Ponzi scheme defines the next home money to make up for the principal and excess returns, the collapse of the entire pyramid once there is no new home support, Bitcoin is obviously not such a pyramid scheme now, I suspect you even Ponzi scam Did not understand the definition, it used to analog Bitcoin.

However, as anyone who knows knows, bitcoin is not a Ponzi scheme because the bitcoin market can be analyzed and the bitcoin investment is profitable.
Don’t you think it would be ridiculous to build these Ponzi schemes and wait for almost 9 years (since 2009) to cheat everybody? Bitcoin is a great cryptocurrency. Millions support it, and miners do not stop their work getting new BTC coins.

Bitcoin is not a ponzi scheme. A ponzi scheme is when the original founder takes new investors money and pay it back in small dividends to the older investors, till the point that it is unsustainable and the founder runs away. A ponzi scheme is based on thin air, deceiving the masses that it has some actual business that generate insane profits but are all bogus. Bitcoin is not like that.

I don't think that the people will learn the hard way that bitcoin is a ponzi scheme because if bitcoin is a really ponzi scheme then a lot of people are now complaining about bitcoin that it is ponzi scheme because bitcoin is not only a few years ago but it is more than 5 years which is a good year to test something and for me, from the past years of being a bitcoin user, i don't see any signs of ponzi scheme in bitcoin.

Disney got a literal truck load of them and tipped them off the back of the truck and over a cliff... cool, eh! seems even more applicable now... hurm are crypto-lemmings the opposite of crypto-whales? anyway no idea why I'm still in this thread. toodles.

After reading such articles I understand that people don't at all understand the structure of bitcoin and what it's based on. Before coming to conclusions - you should figure out what the product is about.

What an absolute shit post if I've ever seen one from the OP. Currency is good because it's debt based? being debt based is half of the mass inflation issues we face in normal currency, debt driven currency over type produces nothing but inflation, no currency should lose value over time, just think about this logic for a second, you work your ass off for 20 years, as time goes by the $$$ you made in your first year is now worth far less, salaries do not go up at the rate in which inflation occurs, so as time goes on we work harder for less, what a system!!!!
We finally come up with a solution which solves these problems, limited supply and no debt = your value actually goes up over time, so now while you're working your ass off, you have incentive knowing that your work will pay off in the future, this is more inline with a system which actually benefits people, debt based + printing more creates a slave like system for humanity, while the people issuing debt benefit greatly, this new approach allows for an even field for all.
Sadly you suffer from the backfire effect, you've grown up with beliefs that what we have is good, so no matter how much logic is thrown at you, you'll never change your view.
Also if your whole reason for this is "Early investors benefit from later investors" then clearly you don't know how markets work, is the entire stock market a ponzi scheme too?
Best to just be quiet if you don't know what you're talking about or can't apply basic logic past over your bias views.
