@brianphobos "In Bitcoin the system isn't directly set up to compensate the recruitment of new members," but Without it, the Bitcoin system crumbles, thereby making it a pyramid. I guess the key words here are "isn't directly."
Once upon, the good ole' USA confiscated Everyones gold under penalty of law. I am sure many thought that was unlikely back then too.
This just came out, Quantum Computers Are (Probably) Going To Steal Your Bitcoin and they are just about here....https://spectrum.ieee.org/tech-talk/computing/hardware/ibms-quantum-leap-simulates-56qubit-machine
And oddly enough, I have lost more money on Steemit and other "legit" coins/tokens than on Bitconnect, which has actually ROI'd for me in Bitcoin, and every day from now until april/may I will collect on that investment in US to BCC to BTC.
So when anyone asks me about Bitcoin and investing in cryptos, the first thing I ask is "How much money do you have to lose without wimpering, crying, bitching or otherwise mentioning again should it all disappear?" Many go Wide-Eyed and then slink away. Only the very few brave step up.
Well of course. If you keep everything a secret it isn't likely to do very well. If I design a mobile app and don't tell anyone adoption is going to stay at 1. That is obvious
That is great you have benefited from it and it is good that you ask people how much they can afford to lose. ....etc.
Joining Bitconnect doesn't make a person brave
