    All your downvotes are for using the words pyramid scheme. It’s a lot of not great things, for sure, but it’s not a pyramid scheme.

      all of your downvotes - many more than the person you’re replying to - are for trying to claim that a system that’s functioned as a pyramid scheme for most of its existence is not a pyramid scheme.

      how much cryptocurrency do you have?

        Care to explain how BTC, a currency with no one controlling it, is a pyramid scheme?

        Who benefits from it besides huge miners? All they get is transaction fees paid to them for supporting the network. That’s not a pyramid scheme.
