I know that here are 2 sides and this is totally emotional.
But could you actually take the pyramid scheme definition and try to explain why it matches that definition? I think, it doesn't.
"A pyramid scheme is a business model that recruits members via a promise of payments or services for enrolling others into the scheme, rather than supplying investments or sale of products."
Does it matter here? If we'd talk about making BTC the federal currency, I'd agree. But the average person has < 1% of the total welth in Bitcoin and it's more like a side-by-side thing.. The block size is also limiting how much it can be used anyway. So, inflation would highlight that problem.. I think, at this point, no one behind Bitcoin is actually aiming to make Bitcoin the single world currency everyone uses exclusively. So, let it be deflational for those who want to put a fraction of their money in a non-inflational currency...
Bitcoin was created shortly after some Banks almost crashed the world economy.
It was also a reaction on centralized services like PayPal freezing the accounts of Wikileaks or similar.
Saying that there were or are no problems is wrong. But Crypto is also not a perfect alternative.
