It's frustrating, I agree. People are obviously going to continue being people with pyramid schemes and the like. At the same time, there are enough who also agree that it's a mess, have closely studied the successes and mistakes of the past, and are building a solid foundation for doing this right. I mean, what we're really talking about here is creating a fundamentally new system for which the financial system operates upon ... it's going to take time ... longer than five years. And the progress that I've seen thus far is encouraging.

Do you also consider Bitcoin a pyramid scheme?
