There was no real way the model could fail without people who didn't understand it complaining to authorities.
Yes, there is a very real way for every ponzi to fail - when their cashflow turns negative. Scammers typically shut it off as soon as the influx of new money isn't sufficient to sustain the scheme, which is what happened with Bitconnect. People can complain about anything. Legit businesses don't use that as a reason to screw over their customers or investors.
Are you suggesting they dumped their BCC tokens or was it the users panic selling? I already showed before they didn't dump. Are you also one of the ones who believe they are faking their $13million BCCX sales every day too? They would also be stupid to dump their own BCC. They were even accepting them as payment for a while at a higher price for the BCCX ICO at a cost to them of $11million per day in price difference (much higher than any BCC exchange volumes). Are you trying to say the thousands of people buying the ICO (there is a miniscule 100BCCX a day limit) are stupid for buying over 260k BCCX each day of the ICO? I didn't buy it but it seems many people did.
Are you unable to read? I didn't say anything of the sort, and your response, like most of your posts, is an incoherent ramble with no relevance to my post.
So why did Bitconnect screw over its "lenders"? Why didn't they wind it down in an orderly manner if it was so profitable and the only problem was complaints? Can you stay on this simple topic for a sentence or two?
Well, there was no way for bitconnect 'cashflow' to 'turn negative' as their platform didn't cost them any BTC. They could profit by selling their BCC tokens but they never did that to any great degree which is evident from looking at the BCC price. It was growing far greater than the interest they paid to lenders. They could legitimately sell the remaining coins they received from the lending as profit whenever they wanted.
There are nearly 10million in supply now and many are still held by bitconnect so they haven't dumped their premine:

About 2million coins are with the top 10 holders (obviously, only bitconnect can have that many). I'm not sure how many coins they had after refunding everyone as I wasn't keeping track.
It's literally like you don't know how anything works. No wonder scammers make money.
