taking advantage of others to make money, a true bitcoin business.

Would you rather I called it a pyramid scheme? OK fine, I will.  Whatever.  Doesn't any casino take advantage of others to make money!?  Do you simply have a problem with gambling in general or something?

You really don't think it's bad for 'the community' that the majority of bitcoin businesses are people enriching themselves by taking advantage of others?  It's the object of the 'game,' to take the jackpot from the other players.  Take from many to enrich the few.  Do you know why most communities DON'T want casinos built nearby?

And jesus, the name.  Hey, sign up for BITCOIN PONZI SCHEME!  WE TELL YOU ITS A PONZI SCHEME, SO YOU KNOW THAT ITS LEGIT!  Do you realize why "Ponzi Scheme" has a negative connotation?
