Tupperware, amway, and herbalife are different because at least there is a product to sell somewhere in there.
And Herbalife is currently under investigation by the FTC, so it isn't even clear at the moment whether they are operating their business in a way that the U.S. government considers legal.

Yea, I have no idea how legal it is, but it has a better chance of working than a pure pyramid/ponzi type system because at some point pills are exchanged for money. If you can find people that want pills, you can sell them. A bitcoin "game" where you put in bitcoins and get out more bitcoins, eventually you are going to run out of bitcoins.

First of all, thank u everyone for dropping by with your valuable suggestion/opinion. As I mentioned in my first post this is not going to be an MLM only business... Upcoming Project: I am planning to build a bitcoin club on www.100bit.co.in with the membership model in referral commission distribution. The club will have multiple online services, but membership will be on referral basis and referral commission will be distributed in the upward chain. We are going to have online services for our club members, where payment method will be in bitcoin. MLM/Pyramid model, whatever u call it, will be used only for membership purpose.

This is what is very important. Dont make an MLM just for the sake of MLM. Make a solid business around it.

I was informing everyone who participated in the previous thread, i.e. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=455724.0By mistake, some members were informed twice. But I never said the project has started in one message and it has ended in another. All of u, who participated in the previous thread, have received the following message and some of u have received it twice. @quone17 Please confirm if u received something else.

As I have said, we are going to have real online services served against bitcoin. For the membership purpose we are preferring single chain over pyramid model. Would like to know all of your opinion regarding this.

... So does the US recognize it as a currency now?
BTC ponzis were determined to be illegal in the USA: currency vs. property wasn't the issue; Still illegal. MLM is legal if you are selling real products.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending
|
|
April 05, 2014, 06:56:25 PM |

Preface: I'm a developer and as a developer I always dreamt of building interesting software business. But sadly I never got support from the bank to move forward with my plan. Now, Bitcoin has given me the freedom to dream again. I wish much more wider acceptance of Bitcoin in coming days. Failure: My first Bitcoin project was a gambling game ( www.100bit.co.in). Inspired by the success of SatoshiBet, PrimeDice etc. I chalked out a plan. I proposed the idea on the board and found a lot of people showing interest to the basic concept of a gambling on blockchain.info data (ref: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=455724.0). Today was the last day of the game and if you look at the game thread ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=471521.0), u'll instantly figure out that I was a failure in this project. Learning: A lot of people can risk 0.01 BTC, but there should be an assured way for everyone of them to win back the bitcoin with profit. That is the reason Ponzi games are so successful over gambling ones !!! One of the participants in the game even mentioned it ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=471521.msg5287264#msg5287264) Upcoming Project: I am planning to build a bitcoin club on www.100bit.co.in with the membership model in referral commission distribution. The club will have multiple online services, but membership will be on referral basis and referral commission will be distributed in the upward chain. Following is what I have decided as of yet. Membership: n BTC Direct commission to referrer: x% Indirect commission distributed in the upward chain: y% Like the previous project, I want all of your feedback on this idea too. Can it take off ? It sure does read similar to what I started developing 6 days earlier: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=517758.0http://uberkoin.com/ (reverting to http://uberqoin.com/ once in beta)
