Show Notes

"Not everyone understands what a pyramid scheme actually is, what the warning signs may be, or why such schemes always fail [...] The distinctions should be glaringly obvious, but because bitcoin is complex and the very idea of money is not well understood, it can easily be confused." - Parker Lewis

Starting with the both obvious, yet not so obvious truth, that it is certainly not a pyramid scheme! Don't miss another incredible installments by Parker Lewis.
