No, it doesn't, because all Ponzi schemes will always unravel. Keeping quiet isn't going to help you.
What this does is it creates an incentive to not invest in a ponzi, period. Without this rule, it makes sense for me to invest into something that I think is a Ponzi, as long as I believe that I'll be able to cash out before it collapses.
