Got me huh? Exactly what do you have? You make many blanket assumptions. It's beyond obvious that people at the beginning of a Ponzi will win earn money.
I know OGnasty had a mining rig setup for investors. Renting our ming hashrate is very easy and there is no need to scam. Of course I care.
OGNasty promised 8% monthly returns (10% if you trust him lots), while planning to pay out a 1% reserve fund and
lost or
embezzled the rest, depending on what you ask him. (Nasty's
own words - third link in my sig)
Do you really expect people who knowingly run scams to follow some "ponzi" rules? No, as you see they will steal whatever they think they can get away with. Don't defend ponzis just because you think they follow set financial guidelines such as "people at the start make money"? That is beyond obvious a blanket assumption that OG now showed you is wrong.
