RE: Stop yelling at Bitconnect!

in #bitconnect7 years ago (edited)

Your kidding right? Tell me your kidding. I also had nothing in bitconnect but don't you feel some compassion for those countless people - fellow human beings who lost everything? It seems a scam to me when a small number of people, Youtubers and the creators or those closely connected with the founders are the ones getting rich at the expense of others. It seems perfectly normal to want to yell or have feelings of loss or be in a state of temporary anger and depression. Maybe I am wrong.

Sort:  

I got in late on bitconnect my only regret is i did not get in sooner never did they not pay, even when my interest was .03 i keep going i had 10 referrals all who invested what i did 100 bucks we all got all our money back in the end no ponzi just a unique business model and whats sad is y'all bash cause you afraid to try and mad you aint getting what everyone who was not afraid did and for the youtubers who educated us on there journey just like a teacher gets paid so should the promoters #gokillyourself if you dont want to invest dont but dont bash a good business model that did not scam like may before has done v-one hexabot laser and many others who ran off with tons of people money at least bitconnect was honest and still building

By refusing to admit that it was a ponzi scheme, you're setting yourself up to get cheated again. Just because you got your money out does not change the fact that it was a scam.

Recognize it for what it was or get taken again in the future!

Agree. You won’t see a clearer scam. It’s a unique business model because it’s illegal, which is why the promoters and founders are currently being sued. The model was to pay out original investors using money from new ones. A clear ponzi. I can’t bekiebe people still won’t accept it was a scam destined to fail. I personally thought it would last a little longer but they obviously saw the writing on the wall as the cease and desist letters game flooding and decided to scarper with the loot!

I admit I invested and acted of my own free will and accord knowing the risk of my invest "HYIP", reaping the benefits or otherwise failure if that was the case. I risked what I could afford and therefor I am happy with the results. By doing this I take ownership of my actions and refuse to blame a entity for any sub actions associated with my original actions. Thus being said I'm good how bout dat'

My fellow human beings are responsible for their own actions. Everyone has the choice to make their own decisions. Call it what you want, people still made shit-tons of money, can't deny that. Bitconnect might have been the first to pioneer lending platforms, but they sure won't be the last. Lending platforms aren't going anywhere. You say it seems like a scam, well how about you try it out for yourself.

Of course, fellow humans are responsible for their own actions. Then one day some guy spilt hot coffee on themselves. And they sued the shit out of McDonald's. And won.

So it will be interesting if "this is not financial advice" was said in EVERY video and if any lawyers were affected by a financial loss. Welcome to the sue-happy nation.

That’s just it. It wasn’t a lending platform. It didn’t lend anything to anyone. There was no trading bot. It simply took your investment and used it to pay off those higher up, giving the impression of making returns!

I don't think Bitconnect is a ponzi, it is only a lending platform pioneer, a real martyr, being killed by those who are jealous of its huge success.

Stockholm syndrome. Let reality slap you in the face. Acknowledge that all Bitconnect investor were nothing but tools to these people so they could fund their next venture (Bitconnect X). Lear your lessons. Come out of this experience stronger and wiser. Take care

Yep, the replies here are just sad. Really sad. People defending ponzi after collapse? The most popular reasoning looks to be that some people actually got more money out of it than they put in. Hurray! Great for those few. Are you kidding me?

Another one is that "everyone" knew it was going to collapse before hand, sure mate. Sure. None of these bloggers pushing for it talked about collapsing. It's hard to accept the harsh cold truth.

I agree. Stockholm syndrome. Sad candidates for a Darwin award.

Sou you agree with me, yet you only upvoted the reply to my comment :-(

Sometimes you get unlucky.....just hit the wrong guy sometimes.

bitconnect was a well crafted scam if you noticed they only paid back their tokens that lost huge amount of value , if they wanted yo really pay back peoples money they should have paid them in bitcoin

U say true words. This blogger is a troll.
