You can find have various definitions of what is a pyramid scheme. I agree that etherium is not a classic pyramid scheme, but for me it fits many criteria so I feel like it's a fair simple description accessible to anyone.

I don't think etherium is necessarily a bad investment if you have no moral or are not well informed. Many scams can be profitable.

I think you can only say this if you believe that the services provided by the Ethereum network are only valuable to individuals perusing illegitimate activities. Do you really think that there is not any legitimate use for Ethereum?

Is it immoral to invest in Ethereum if you truly believe in the promise of the technology? Are you saying that anyone who believes in the promise of the technology is ill informed?

Ah, well, that’s certainly a timeless way to end a conversation, to call your interlocutor a dumb jerk!

Don’t get me wrong. I only disagree with everything you are saying, nothing more.
