    well the difference between you and me is I knoew it was a ponzi going into it and chose to roll the dice anyway hoping it would pop after I was out, and at the end of the day ive still got my bcc coins which are not totally worthless (yet)

    Actually the difference is I made a profit and will continue to do so for well over another year where as you didn't, but hey if you sleep better at night continuing to delude yourself then more power to you champ.

    I'm sorry, but there is just so much LOL and wrong with everything you've said here. Saying that every coin is a speculative ponzi is just you being butthurt for being burned by BCC. You acknowledge that you knew what you were getting into, but it was always an unnecessary risk and you we're probably a bit naive thinking you could get out at the top before it fell apart.

    No doubt there are heaps of shitcoins, but there are plenty of excellent projects that will be around long term and have significant impacts on how things are done in the world moving forward, so saying 99% are worth nothing or no more/less than BCC is just delusional

    Of course there was reason to panic sell and get the hell out. It's a confirmed ponzi scheme and everyone who gets left behind is carrying bags. That being said, with all the crazy stuff that goes on in the crypto world I wouldn't be surprised if some people do keep their BCC, but their simply delusional. No way BCC can recover from here

    every siongle crypto is worth exactly nothing in real terms you not buying a share in a company or anything physical. you are buying into a speculative ponzii scheme period. these projects can shutdown at a moments notice and you are in the same boat. the technology behind bitcoin will have an immpact on the orld w but no company worth their salt would use any public coin as its all open source they would hire a developer and make something if they wanted to use the blockchain tech.in house

    the lending platform was the ponzi the coin is now no differnt to any other crypto the fact you cant see that is what is LOL look at the top 100 coins and all coins there if you uy into them you own exactly nothing besides a speculative promise no different to bcc

    So now that the lending platform is gone it has zero value as there is no product and no future. At least all of the others that are in development have future products to be released and although they might be speculative promises the good ones are transparent, have reputable people involved and have future adoption if executed, where as everyone knew that BCC was always a ponzi that had no future and what made it even worse was all the deadbeats who continually shilled it and lured more and more naive people in.

    I completely agree that all coins that have no product are speculative, but the good ones have bright futures and we know that our investments are based on speculation/future potential etc and although there will be shitcoins that do end up taking peoples money you cannot defend what BCC did

    Highly suspect it was pumped so that a whale could recoup at least some losses.
