Normal ponzi schemes aren't like this at all. They typically go on for days, weeks, and sometimes even years. Bernie Madoff's ponzi scheme lasted for almost two decades.

Yeah, that's what we need, proper Ponzi schemes that steal millions, not these crappy cheap copies.

 Cry

In fact, so many fools out there throw away their money to thief.

the people that have created ponzis here recently are small minded and non creative. theyve not figured out how to get players to invest so once they make a small amount they just run off. its so easy to make a new account here and do the same thing over and over. and honestly theres not really any consequences when they do so

Because your 0.02BTC was the game. Once the scammer has some money there is little incentive to do anything except go shopping. In a real ponzi you are paying out initial "investors". But why even do that?

Yeah I second that. Most of the time I have the feeling they are unemployed kids seeking some funds online to buy the next call of duty game for free!  Cool

After losing 0.02 BTC to ponzi games and reading some of the threads here, it seems that the ponzi games here end extremely quickly. A game that is designed to last a week such as WeeklyPonzi.com might only really last for an hour or so. It is common for those who deposited only a couple of hours after a game has started can to not see any return at all. A game that is designed to last for 24 hours might only see those who deposited within the first 10-20 minutes see a profit.

And you must have marked that there were only first 4 of all the investors in 24hourponzi.com that got paid today... Seems that this ain't just about the investment, it's also about the interest and trust of a person to either invest in ponzi and risk or just sit back and watch... I ain't encouraging you at any point to put your money in any of them, it was just an opinion...

Well, the victims of Madoff didn't know that they were part of a ponzi. It's much easier to string people along with long-term investments. No blockchain to monitor transactions either.

They need quick small money to gamble, just my opinion.

EDIT: Cryptory and pirateat40 were other ponzi schemes that lasted for several months/years.
