The #1 one thing you missed is that BITCONNECT does not guarantee any daily % while classic ponzi's guarantee x amount daily. The second thing that you missed is that they have a trading bot that makes a % each and every day. What this means is bitconnect has a source of income AND can account for market conditions. There are many other things that you missed. Please explain how other crypto-currencies can shoot up 30%, 50% I have even seen 100% in a day gains without anyone screaming its a ponzi? Most cryptos are pure speculation at the moment; some don't even have a working product or business model. Whereas bitconnect not only has its own model but a working product. Perhaps I will write an article on it because I can;t mention it all here.
