LOL I understand it just fine. I have made some money on it too.

Still a pyramid scheme. But so engrained that I'm not sure it will ever truly die because someone else will be along to swear it's worth it cause of how much time, effort, money, and the energy of a small nation that was put into it.

But oh man "uhh Bitcoin isn't like all the other crypto which is worthless scams" lol

Could you explain how it’s a pyramid scheme? General curious as no one owns it

You’re right I shouldn’t have lashed out, just frustrated. I’ve posted links to support my argument, not everything is black and white and some bad actors will always taint any good work done in any industry.

P.s I started swinging after everyone’s comments. Note the edit portion of my post
