my own brother was involved in a Ponzi

He invested $10 with Madoff?

he "invested" in Telexfree, biggest pyramid sceme in Brazilian history

From the bitterness you display I can only assume more was "invested" than could afford to be lost, if not then with all due respect so what. And if so, erm don't invest more than you can afford to lose. Pretty simple game tbh.

bitternes? lol

I read it before and thought your brother sounded like an idiot then in all honesty. Maybe he should look at it as an education, after all they cost money too.

Don't you feel back promoting something that is most likely a ponzi?

I think you should!

All are innocent until proven guilty. Do your own due diligence.

It is pretty obvious in this case.

It is like a guy with an axe in the hand, covered in blood comes out of a house where a dead body with axe marks lies. Still innocent? Sure there might be a 0.0001% chance he is, but come on...

More than 1/1,000,000 pick up a murder weapon at a scene without thinking especially if it was by a loved ones body. Yea blood gets everywhere. Rather crappy example you found there. I think a safe bet is never invest more than your IQ, or a comfortable factor there of.

Furthermore Shaky, I assume you promote BTC? So when a vastly superior alternative takes over and there are loads of BTC bag holders left making it look like the largest ponzi in history, you will be feeling bad? Or from today you'd rather no longer promote BTC?

Denial is good thing I guess, keeps you guys happy.

I do not promote BTC, I just like the concept of it. Other than BT bitcoin really does add value to the world and not just scam people.

Well, whatever makes you sleep at night Wink

LOL you never mention BTC to anyone? I think you just discredited yourself as a probable liar. You feel the promotion that BT has brought to the BTC community the past few months through sponsorship has zero value? Please explain your view on this as I draw a blank when trying to understand your position on it.
