Remember Bernie?
No, not that Bernie! I'm talking about the other white-haired Bernie. Bernie Madoff - the Wall St tycoon who conned people around the world.
What a great example of the value system of pretty much the whole financial sector, eh?
If they're not pushing scams, they're shoving third-rate products down our throats. Bernie got caught in a flagrant act of theft, but remember he was president of the Nasdaq for quite a while. Quite a poster boy!
That's why it's totally understandable that you might be a bit skeptical about the VIVA Project.
So, today I wanted to address this issue head on.
I'm pretty sure by now you've asked yourself this question, "is the VIVA Project a ponzi scheme?"
So here's the whole truth and nothing but the truth:
A ponzi scheme relies on the money being deposited at the bottom of the pyramid to pay the returns to those at the top. For a while it works, until there aren't enough stiffs at the bottom and the whole mess comes tumbling down.
The VIVAconomy is totally different.
The energy that keeps the VIVAconomy's motor running doesn't come from the Vivos. We aren't looking for individuals to convert their savings into VIVA. Instead, the energy comes from eliminating all the waste that usually lines the pockets of the big financial corporations.
For example, when you wire money to a friend in Europe the bank charges you 80 bucks. For what? Does that money go towards YOUR financial stability? Of course not. It goes to BoA or Wells Fargo.
However, in the VIVAconomy a similar transaction is practically free. And what's most important, that tiny fee DOES go into the VIVA Liquidity Pool - which you have a stake in!
Similarly, when a business uses VIVA the same thing occurs. Or when you let your computer act as a worker node. These are the sources of financial energy that drive our growth.
See the difference?
The VIVAconomy works because it streamlines transactions and reinvests the costs of those transactions in you. It's a true paradigm shift, but it's certainly not a ponzi scheme.
The faster it grows the sooner we all will benefit.
