It's only a Ponzi if you are not actually engaged in any real business activity. Financing payments to early investors with later investors money isn't a great indicator of the quality of the business but it's acceptable if you aren't misrepresenting things to get the new investors and there is legitimate business activity.

It's only a Ponzi scheme if it comes from Ponzi Vineyards. Otherwise it's just sparkling fraud.
