Very flawed thinking my friend :) - Craig Grant doesn't promote Ponzi's - he's just a regular guy that used his influence to make some dough. Bad decision, yeah - but he wasn't the only one - millions of people bought into Bitconnect thinking it was legit. There were far bigger channels than his promoting this stuff, it's just they realised it was a scam before he did.

Not that I'm excusing his actions or anything, but he's saw another project that he likes that he can make money from handing out his referral link. P3D can't ban him from doing so because that would be against their thinking - decentralisation and open source.

Bitconnect was centralised. You were essentially trusting other people with your money.

P3D is decentralised. You can take your money out at any time at whatever price. The dev team have nothing more to do with the contract apart from manage the community. Also, the contract has been rigorously tested and vetted as much as some of the big coins out there.

Let me ask you this. I've saw Craig Grant promote steem in the past and he continues to do so. Will you be giving up your presence on here? ;)
