And the funniest part is; most of this people that get scammed actually knew that what they are going into is a ponzi scheme but they still went ahead to try their luck according to how they call it, with the belief that they will be able to get double of their money they put in or more before it shorts down, imagine the risk, instead of investing the money on something reliable and safe. Greed and impatient are the major factors influence this mindset,  because whoever that is patient enough will do something valuable regardless of how long it takes to achieve.
Greed is actually their problem because it's easy to understand that you can never make it through ponzi schemes. Trying your luck on quick scheme is not advisable, quick schemes are not always reliable people still want to get scammed. Well I think it's their business, because there is no sense in tryy to make money from what you know that it's not possible. You have to advise yourself and invest on a reliable source so that, in the end you will still have something  even though it's a long process.

Unfortunately, greed and lack of proper research make many people easy targets for scheme like this. Most Ponzi schemes don’t attract investors by offering realistic returns, because the way they attract them is by promising quick and huge profits. For real what surprises me  is that many people are willing to hand over huge amounts of money to strangers but won’t spend a few hours learning about bitcoin or how investments actually work. Cases like this is a reminder that if an investment opportunity sounds too good to be true you should do proper findings and not fall victim. Education remains one of the best defenses against fraud

Christopher Delgado, once the public face of Goliath Ventures — an alleged cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme federal investigators say took in more than $300 million from investors — is speaking publicly for the first time as he faces federal charges.

Former Goliath Ventures CEO speaks out as feds probe alleged $300 million crypto ponzi scheme

It was alledged by the federal government, but it is no more an allegation because Christopher Delgado has said it is true. He was using people's money to pay other people which is exactly what ponzi scheme is.

But why are people like this? Instead of making research and invest in bitcoin, they did not. This will not be the last. If federal government did not do the investigation, nothing would have been known.
Is certain that what most people want is making money without stress, thierby giving room for scammers to come in. For example , wanting to get first position in an exam but failing to read your books, which sometimes may prompt you paying somebody to write the exam for you, in some case you might still fail the exam. Most people see making research and investing in bitcoin as wasting of time. so the mindset of making the money fast and huge lead then to ponzi scheme , even those who are not interested in it are been trigger by the testimony of some people,  thierby investing huge amount of money without proper investigations.

Making proper research before puting in your money can save you from regret.

Educated people get scam though Ponzi scheme too, scammers are very smart people and only dull people will fall for them, regardless of your educational status, if you're educated and you have a bad habit of making money by quick end then you will be scam easily, scammers also project unrealistic amount to win if you invest lesser amount, greedy people who can't take time to review will jump into it for quick money only to be scam.

Education can't save you if you're a greedy fellow, you will always fall for Ponzi scheme scam, it takes a brave scholar to escape scammers, as a scholar with integrity you will always research before investing and when you're not convinced you let go. Many people are not patient enough to hold Bitcoin for long they all wanted to be rich overnight which is not possible.

Some of them have heard a lot of good news about BTC but they don't know how to invest to achieve such profit from BTC, which is the reason some prefer to allow someone they trust to help them to invest in BTC, because they will not mine to share the profit equally. They can only call someone that related to them to help them invest, because they know such person will not do such a thing that will make him or her to run away with his capital.

I have seen many people who changed their mind to learn BTC and other cryptocurrencies, and they are doing well, because they spend time to learn what they need to learn to know when to sell and where not to sell than to hodl until the bull market occur.

I think that was just pretty easy for some people to do even government agencies are using the easy method to do this kind of scheme on banks, insurance, etc., so people are just used to this kind of thing most of the time, thinking that it is probably a legitimate way to earn money overall. I think it was just easier, of course, you dont really want to do something, and most of us are thinking that it is going to be easy to earn a huge amount of money when it comes to crypto, but it was mostly the opposite.

One of the advice that I always give to newbies is if you wanted to invest on crypto or Bitcoin you should be the one that is going to do it, and not let others or your friends or anyone to invest for you, we already heard enough of this kind of story of someone losing money because they trusted there friend to invest on Bitcoin thinking that they are going to easily get rich with it, and I think at some point there are some legit people who do this but reality is going to hit since no one could actually predict how the market is going to turns out.

Some people are just deceived by quick returns,they’re running for a long term return till they get duped that’s when they’ll realize the potential in bitcoin.It’s not a compulsory move to invest on a digital currency there are numerous investments that are worth investing aside investing in cryptocurrencies.There are few legit coins that won’t dupe your funds except you’re vulnerable to scammers.The word “research” plays a vital role in starting an investment especially when the project was newly launched,instead of wasting your resources on Ponzi scheme I recommend starting a business because Ponzi scheme doesn’t have any value once the early investors get paid.

Trust in the so-called regulation and licensing is also part of the things which have been pushing some people to follow some group of investors or trust a system with their money because they feel like they are really licensed, which means their money is safe with them as the government is supposed to protect them which is far from the truth, there are even some investment offers that might be offered by your government that should be overlooked because of how simple and too good it appears, simple research can save some people from a lot of this trouble and constant loss of money.
