Interesting. Would you have any sources?
As a starter:
Was?
You could claim that Bitcoin is a ponzi scheme.
If miners can’t sell 3,600 per day (6 block/h * 24 h * 25 BTC/block) the price drops until all collapses.
Bitcoin is (financially) only sustainable if fresh money enters the scene and creates BTC demand day after day.
Sounds strange, I know.
Feel free to invalidate that claim if you will.
But better don’t tell the rest of the crypto world - it might be perceived as an attack on a quasi religious belief…

I understand your point but don’t we have something similar with NuBits in the sense that we need to have constantly some liquidity providers to guarantee a peg?
in this sense, ponzi is every digital coin out there. moreover the whole economic world model can be perceived as a major global ponzi scheme 
(a matter of perception)
exactly.
Just saw this comment about B&C under the Cryptsy thread on r/cryptocurrency…

Erik Voorhees mentions Nubits:
Some coins have different attributes than Bitcoin (ie privacy in Monero or stability in Nubits)

Nice article and love the positive reply.
Synthetic fiat is an interesting label for NuBits. Another is the one Sunny King recently termed, cryptofiat.

It seems he liked the informative reply to his comment, so that means he read it and got the links to the history and information on our current status.

Bitcoiners want stability but not now – i guess when it might wishfully have reached a couple of grands per BTC.
BTW, to which extent is this true or false?

No NuBits in this Fintech landscape summary-- any plausible and reasonable reasonable?
Interesting and intriguing.
