I'm pretty sure that no one is buying into these Ponzis. The person running them seems to have a stable of other forum accounts that he uses to claim they are investing and then getting paid back.

I think if you do the traces on the transactions, you'll see the money is just going in circles. I did this on one of them just to satisfy my curiosity.

If you have the ability to do HS math, you should be able to figure out that ponzis don't work.

standard low post count "It's awesome!" mixed with tons of copy-pasta type ponzi sites. Like a few operators are laughing right now.

mem, I'm with you in this fight. they have simply been allowed to take over. spirit of marketplace/gambling, destroyed in a scammy ball of bitcoin dust. I feel it too my man.

The mods are our only hope. Maybe that or a revolt / peaceful non-violent forum demonstration of some sort. maybe make 20 threads that all say "PONZI'S GET OUT OF MARKETPLACE / GAMBLING THEY ARE SCAMS"

and bump all 20 each time a ponzi thread is at the top. Then we make the mods, at the very least, make a /ponzi subcat off marketplace and let the kids try and not be left with the flaming ball of shit when the music stops to their hearts content in this cute little model libertarian community where even blatent scams have a subcat and I totally agree with that because, well, some of these idiot humans running around love to send coins to ponzi's over and over again. And they should have the right to get fucked out of their bitcoins. but not in a forum of legitimate btc gambling sites.

I've been using the "report to moderator" button on every new one I see. I figure if everyone does that, they will have to take some sort of notice.

we need to act as a forum. If we all go nuts on the report to moderator every ponzi every post we can make a change. But as is, one or 4 of us doing it has clearly been ignored
