Because greed. For the record, some people already knew it was pyramid scheme, but still got in early and made profit.

Scammer will do everything on their power to deceive and get what they want.. simply money...may it be in pyramid or what... investment in any platform like these is a little bit suspicious, if without careful investigation and knowledge regarding these will fall into huge loss... better not to enter into this.. just be patient with your bitcoin your profit will come to

to get rich quickly, of course.  the tempting offers are too huge to ignore for impatient people.. in the first few months, everything seem to be so cool so everyone was so confident it would last forever.  and the rest is history.

well maybe in order to avoid being exposed to fraud again they realize that they are too quick to conclude, because this year it seems more and more Sacaming, so to not be affected they are too early to conclude, but sometimes it's true if too few supporters usually are scams, well but true browsing first is also important, before you consider a scam too early.

This is why there are cults and such... people get overwelmed and are carefully driven on their emotions to the point where the scammer want's them...
People behave a lot like sheep on a herd... and when money is concerned the herd turns carnivorous and greed takes over... the idea of uncountable riches rules thir mind and they just do what they are told by the master ...
human nature is sometimes so keen and strong and sometimes so dumb and predictable...

I think people hope they can get in and out before it goes bust.  Then when they see they actually get paid for a period of time, they want to start believing that it's really that good

That kind of scams occur at every moment in this ecosystem, remember that at that time much money entered the market and not everyone who entered here were as prepared or informed as we are now, so it is easy to think of people who are carried away by this kind of absurd income, in that moment of prosperity did not sound so crazy.

I think Bitconnect is successful in implementing massive promotion strategies and attracts the public to attract as many investors as possible. the way the team conveyed what was their project's vision and mission also made a sense of community trust emerge. in spite of the eventual failure of this project, it has become part of the risk of digital investment, especially in the cryptocurrency industry
