    No, because pyramid scheme has a specific meaning and a stock using speculative investments to pro up it’s own value does not fit that definition.

          Well you are wrong. It is a pyramid scheme as explained in the video. That is the whole point of information, you cannot conclude something from a title.

          Sounds like you have an agenda.

            Yeah I have an agenda against the misuse of words.

            The video even says it, this is closer to a ponzi scheme than a pyramid scheme. Pushing aponzi scheme into a stock wrapper doesn’t transform it into a pyramid.

              The important part is that it is a scheme which is destined for disaster. Once it blows up it will be irrelevant if a video called it a pyramid or ponzi, it being exposed is what matters.
