Whoever mines the block which ends up containing your transaction will get its fee.

At this point it is unnecessary.

At some point when the load of Bitcoin transactions is so great that it starts taking a long time to process transactions, paying a transaction fee may become necessary.
Do not waste your time debating whether Bitcoin can work. It does work.

"Early adopters will profit" is not a sufficient condition to classify something as a pyramid or Ponzi scheme. If it was, Apple and Microsoft stock are Ponzi schemes.

There is no such thing as "market manipulation." There is only buying and selling.

It basically increases your transactions priority in the system, increasing the speed it will be "processed".
