A very small minority of people control the vast majority of Bitcoin, it goes from thousands to hundreds over a course of months. All from manipulation by that small minority.
- rvschuilenburg 9y agoThere's also a small minority of people that control the vast majority of USD. A pyramid scheme is a business model that recruits members via a promise of payments or services for enrolling others into the scheme, rather than supplying investments or sale of products or services. Bitcoin has no such thing.
