Earlier quoted context omitted.

Bitcoin is a ponzi scheme, and as far as I know it's the best one ever created. That's why I'll drop my paychecks into it for as long as I live (or work).

Ponzi schemes are built on misplaced and misguided trust and designed to benefit early investors at the expense of those who follow. Your simple minded strategy virtually guarantees that you will be a follower.

It also virtually guarantees me a lot of money. I see no reason for Bitcoin to stop growing. Cryptocurrency is a brilliant concept that has no equal.

"I see no reason for [Ponzi scheme] to stop growing" --- said everyone who has ever invested in a Ponzi scheme.
