You're definitely right about Control Finance having a nice website. It's better designed even compared to BCC website. Control finance seems like a Ponzi scheme. The commissions on their plan especially at the advance level appear to be just too large to sustain that scheme for a long a time.

If BitConnect is here end if next year you all are going to be pissed off! Well the people that havent invested init! Most ponzis are take ya bitcoin for silly hourly accumulative payouts that never come in the end. Bitconnect has somthing to offer. it has a coin that you buy with your btc! I only invest what I am not dependant on. do the same!

Ponzi schemes almost all end up in failure. The people who make the most money in them are the founders followed by the people who got in really early then cashed out.

I totally agree with you BitConnect has a BlockChain and buy and sell orders list is long - so this makes for 50% of validation - now the trading bot is a question but if it pays lets just collect
anyways never invest more then you can afford to loose

I agree, also if the price of BTC continues to rise then it increases the longevity of bitconnect. If there was a way to view the trading bots trades that might help dispel some doubt.

Unless you want to outsmart potential Scam -
1 Deposit what you can afford to loose ( lets say $1000 )
2 in about 100 days Bot will pay that back in profits
3 withdraw $1000 you just made
and just play the rest of the game basically for FREE
this is my Plan :) https://bitconnect.co/?ref=xgrosz

Many Nigerians lost a lot in different ponzi schemes this year. I also lost alot. The search of other means of income as a student led me to Steemit after losing alot to Ponzis. I had to buy steems to power up though because i so much believe in Steemit. Resteemed

@trevonjb im glad you brought this up in todays new vast world of crypto there is a lot of opportunity and with opportunity there's always those that are trying to take advantage of it. It is a smart thing to raise awareness of Ponzi schemes we may not ever be able to stop them but we can absolutely put a dent in their plans by coming together maybe we should start a page where we list all of the known Ponzi schemes even the old ones that had been caught and shut down as a reference who knows it might just help.

Ponzi schemes just suck period. Made to make the boss of it richer & pretty much screw the rest that are below him/her. HYIPs are shit too. Years ago i was part of a HYIP & actually got paid. After that, haven't got crap. They jump server to servers & their info is private. The choice is ultimately yours which you have to be VERY CAUTIOUS.

The capital releases are going to put selling pressure on the BitConnect Coin as people transfer their capital release into BitConnect then sell that into Bitcoin to "Withdrawl to their bank account!", so around then could be a good time to buy and HODL some BCC tokens

I think All HYIP propositions are ponzi schemes. There is no other way to explain the high returns that they promise. Please correct me if I am wrong here.
So the point is that most of the companies operating such websites seem to get away with the crimes. Not sure if they are pursued & brought to book.
The silver lining though is that some of the forums (like bitcointalk.org) do discuss such issues & warn others not to invest.

If someone is making crazy profits with a trading bot, no scheme involved. However, there is a lot of people who are "bag holders" or people who lost money. Stocks and all trading instruments are transfers of wealth. Not money makers necessarily.

Been in control finance for a month. My approach with this stuff is wait and see, just put a small deposit and watch what it does. I think what's happening is forex traders who use bots to trade forex are just opening margin accounts on crypto exchanges, and then taking in investor's money and trading it on exchanges using bots and giving investors a small chunk of the profit.

For a forex trader this is probably just as easy and more profitable than an actual ponzi. There are NO regulations on trading crypto. You can trade as many times as you can a day, 24/7, 365.

People want to say that Steem is a ponzi, but you can make $$$ here without putting up any of your own funds. That goes against what a Ponzi scheme is because without new $$$ CONSTANTLY flowing in a Ponzi falls apart. I love the ideas of Steem and Bitconnect, great livestream.

Umm. Every business depends on new or repeat money flowing in to stay operational. Is that the definition of a ponzi? If the owners at the top of a business makes more than the workers at the bottom does that make that business a ponzi or pyramid? If a business pays its sales team a commission to bring in more clients who spend money in that business does that make it a pyramid?

Now that bitconnect is showing so much progress I am not surprised to see others coming out with a similar format. I do always see it it looks shady. Control finance might be legit but seeing the exchange on bitconnect makes me feel more secure putting my money into bcc. I also don't like the idea of people sitting there and taking my money while promising all this profit. To good to be true. The fact that there is no release of capital really makes me take a huge step back. I'll stick with bcc for now.
