No, it is not? The code is verified and anyone can check it. Don't FUD other pyramids because you have one of your own.  Payouts are happening, there is no fee: http://etherscan.io/address/0x0f26c26318872e8fa85dee5d30cba45ed53b3d3e#internaltx
I don't FUD, unlike all these incompetent copy pasters I can make superior apps, so I don't need to resort to cheap tactics to trick people into using mine. That app's code has a big mistake in it that will cause whoever deposits 40ETH or more to lose money. I just happen to care about people, so take it as a PSA.

You're right, anyone who sends 40 ETH or more will get in return 10 ETH on that pyramid.
Your pyramid, Katatsuki, is better and more dynamic, but it's somewhat complex or not well explained, that's why the simplicity of Zero fee got more traction, although now it got 100 transactions stuck, not sure why except if the creator is getting some fee or extra ETH...

It's funny that a lot of people investing in there can't actually read a very simple contract. What's the point of a verifiable contract if you're not actually verifying it.

Ok updated the website from BitBubble to Github.io

http://ethgambler.github.io/ZeroP/

The site is based off the github. I am not the creator of this app I'm just someone who wanted to help improve it. I know there is at least 3 developers who have contributed now. The site is based off github bellow and anyone is free to make suggestions to edits to the GUI.

https://github.com/EthGambler/ZeroP

The developers are invested in continuing development of the GUI and a wider marketing campaign once we're accepted into State of the dApps. I'll be depositing some more money for the rally just before that happens.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but state of the dapps hasn't been accepting pozi apps lately, as they are all copy pasted and offer nothing new. At this point you probably need to come up with something original and actually useful to get listed there. If they had to list every ponzi app that has been spammed recently nobody would take Ethereum seriously.

Or maybe they're just on vacation, who knows~

On vacation I guess, they just published LittleCactus Smiley

He probably got stuck in the old one and is doing his best to FUD other pyramids to attract this 1000 ETH to the new one. But people will contine to chose fresh projects instead of investing in the stuck ones.

I invested in the new one and got paid. It seems the same in terms of rewards. Just checked the code.

 while (balance > persons[payoutIdx].amount / 100 * 125) {
      uint transactionAmount = persons[payoutIdx].amount / 100 * 125;
      persons[payoutIdx].etherAddress.send(transactionAmount);

This got stuck, so I have created another one with identical payout and cap limit parameters (+25%, 10 ETH).
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1426710.new#new

Permanent 0% fee Ethereum Ponzi was the most popular ponzi recently.
Unfortunatelly it got stuck and needs over thousand of ETH to get unstuck, so I've started another pyramid with exactly the same parameters (+25% payout, 10 ETH max payment).

Of course the earlier you invest, the bigger your gains. People who invested in the previous ponzi on the first day earned a lot of money, so be quick!

How to play?

Just send ETH to this address:
0xf835b307bc5348194ae01ed729170c84217ba688
Do not attempt to send more than 10 ETH, since it will be returned to you.
Also do not send directly from the exchanges.

Here you can see current stats/payouts:
http://etherscan.io/address/0xf835b307bc5348194ae01ed729170c84217ba688


There is also so called standard fee for the creator (10% according to this bard), but it does not influence your rewards in any way - you always get what you invested +25% more.
The contract is verified and made public, so you know it works as promised.

13 people already playing the new one. Thx!

Nice work on the 0 Fee contract, it seems to be working properly.

Here is a Webpage User Interface that displays the stats for this contract:
https://github.com/ContractsJust4Fun/WealthRedistributionExperiment/blob/master/ZeroP.html

Download to your desktop and open in browser or someone can host it somewhere and send link to OP.

Also, I can't seem to post a screenshot, can someone help?

Works in FF too.
Really cool.



1. I made a branch to change the names and hope to possibly make some upgrades. Should I merge my changes back into your original project or do you plan to keep that one for your other expermeint? https://github.com/EthGambler/ZeroP

2. I uploaded the site for anyone who wants to run it easily through the broswer: http://ZeroP.bitballoon.com

Edit: I guess it would better to host this on github.io

Yes, all UI self contained or pulled from cdn. The Ethereum node at the bottom becomes the server for the actual data.

does anyone know if there is some way to search for open nodes or some website api that can get open rpc node addresses?

would prefer not to have to hardcode a specific node into the page.

Hey everyone the poster above is advertising a completely different contract which has several flaws. See the photo below where people's cash out is failing because it runs out of gas thus causing them to be skipped.

https://i.imgur.com/Ltoe0iZ.png <-- 'The Simple Game' (advertised above this post)

You can see the payout history of the 0% fee contract below it doesn't have any failed payouts.

If you're talking about no fee ponzi then yeah you have people ahead of you in line. The longer it goes on the longer the wait is.

Currently it's just over 12 hours old and I think it's paid out 500 of 600 people.

I don't think so, Angry

This others working pyramids like Greed Pit or Governmental will benefit from this,

new users to  a pyramids in fire will lead to users in these others pyramids.



And, this pyramid doesn't offers the same features as others, like GUI, original mechanics. Tongue

So i would say it is like a little eco system, good pyramids with a little fee for the features will get even better !
Pyramids with fees that are from copy and paste will fail with their greedy creator !


Long live this pyramids, long live the others pyramidal-based game, long live the pit.  Smiley Cheesy

Multi Level Marketing

usually - bonuses for inviting new people into the project.

Basic marketing efforts all over the world are usually based on revenue share from the newcomer


What we need to make it bigger:

1. 10% bonuses for bringing your friend to the system
2. You can invest ANY amount, but ONLY once a day. - This would make everyone sure, that the interest would only increase.
3. And do not forget - if there is a possibility to invest all over the day - you will do only this. But your efforts are needed also for spreading out the information about this thing. Thats why you need limited "ïnvestors time"
4. We need to launch DAO that owns the contract. Because we could need changes during the roll

Thanks for the explanation. Indeed, the main issue with Ponzi is when they stop Smiley
A continuous marketing effort could delay this inevitable outcome

Yes, Chucky!

Im wondering - how people here did not got for the whole 30 days (about 1 month ago first doubler where created) that you do not need any fees for building a game-ponzi scheme?

If you want to benefit prom this - just invest as others.

The fact that you got it first makes you strategist - IMHO

So - you can optimize this game for the needs of this contest - and the prize is yours

Indeed, a 0% fee Ponzi is a breakthrough but I think we will still see many new ones pop up. Being an early bird on a Ponzi is the key, so the creator will always want to be on top of it (which is a normal reaction)

Chucky666, did you suggested your contract to this contest?

I think Ponzi's are mostly the same (some interesting ones with different elements have however popped-up), the fact that there are no fees on this one doesn't make it revolutionary IMHO, it really is just some inputs & some outputs.

What I do hope is that people start thinking through these things, there should be a reason for the fees for creators.

Awesome, except someone else already used the same fucking stats (other than the fee) a few hours earlier. You say you're tired of the app spam, yet you're just contributing to the problem.

Erk. Good catch, honestly didn't see that one.

Not that tired of the spam, but very actually tired of the ridiculous fees associated with all of these where the play is no different at all - a getting rich quick scheme for the creators, just sucking out as much as they can with their own fees.

Ok, I was getting a bit despondent with all the over-the top Ponzi schemes floating around, especially with all the creators taking 10% for doing nothing. So I put together my own (from scratch, no copy & paste) with 0% going to the creator and a 125% return, i.e. while deposits to it are ongoing you get back 125% (1.25x) of what you put in.

Basically send between 100 finney (0.1 ether) and 10 ether to (like the 1.25 multiplier, the 10 ether maximum is set "low" to allow payout flows)

0x43bbc7fafb860d974037b8f7dd06b6f6fe799b3e

As with all these things, there are risks - if the deposits stops, you are out of luck. While people are playing, you will get your returns. I would recommend not sending from an exchange, rather do it via Geth or Mist since the gas will be calculated correctly for contract execution.
Awesome, except someone else already used the same fucking stats (other than the fee) a few hours earlier. You say you're tired of the app spam, yet you're just contributing to the problem.

Ok, I was getting a bit despondent with all the over-the top Ponzi schemes floating around, especially with all the creators taking 10% for doing nothing. So I put together my own (from scratch, no copy & paste) with 0% going to the creator and a 125% return, i.e. while deposits to it are ongoing you get back 125% (1.25x) of what you put in.

Basically send between 100 finney (0.1 ether) and 10 ether to (like the 1.25 multiplier, the 10 ether maximum is set "low" to allow payout flows)
