Obviously because you can make more money selling it then keeping it to yourself. If the purpose of the machine is to make money why chose the least effective way of making that money just to prevent others from making money as well?
Incidentally this is also the reason that people sell profitable companies even though they are “printing money” every year.
- DonHopkins 7y agoThe point is that if you can make more money selling machines than printing money, then it isn't a very good money printing machine, and you're just another bitcoin scammer, refusing to eat your own dog food, selling an impossible dream to suckers. To purpose of simply using the machine yourself instead of selling it isn't preventing others from making money, it's to avoid wasting your own time and money on sales and marketing and customer service and hiring employees and paying for their health care and leasing office space and manufacturing and shipping products and giving refunds to unsatisfied customers, when you could just be shoveling money directly into your bank account instead, without all the overhead. If the machine was really so great, then you could just print all the money you needed, and give the machines away for free. Now if you could invent a machine selling machine, then you'd have something.
