RE: UPDATE: The Great Steemit Debate: Tone Vays vs @blakemiles84
I agree with you Matrixdweller, BUT you have to also point out that you have a CHOICE to invest your OWN money into Steemit, and you have a CHOICE to Power Up your Steem or Steem Dollars. So, because you don't HAVE to and it's a CHOICE it's not a ponzi in my opinion. And it you DON'T power up, the Steemit Community can still thrive on its own. That's also why it's not a ponzi.
I am not claiming Steem is a ponzi, but ponzi thrive on giving users a choice, making them seem they don't even want their money. Ponzi victims have the choice to participate, it is called different types of fraud/theft when no choice is involved.
