Were seashells a Ponzi? What about glass beads? These were used as “currency” in our history, but nobody uses them as such anymore.

Let’s say Bitcoin is a Ponzi. What or who will do the inevitable rug pull that comes with those scams? What if the rug pull never comes (or does 1000 years from now)? Is it still a Ponzi? Was it a Ponzi for those people who benefited from it in that 1000 years?

But if someone just moves into your property why can’t police just kick them out? That’s an illegal action. If someone came into your house and started stealing your things and you call the cops on them you don’t go to court to prove those things are really yours.
