Perhaps... but cryptocurrency makes this far more blatant and obvious. It really is sold as some kind of pipe-dream and a miracle financial instrument.

Yet tell that to those who lost their shirts on Mt. Gox, Binance, any of the black swan events within the past few years, etc.

It's really a technology-packed MLM.

This has always been the way, people bought lotto tickets because there was nothing to lose and everything to gain.
