[...] What do the next few years hold for e-gold Ltd and all of the assorted HYIP scams? Will there be huge growth as in the past two years or will a changing business environment cause their closure? Will new laws and regulations in the United States cause a digital currency melt down, slow down or a massive expansion? [...]

You are correct, the frauds and scams have been around long before Mr. Ponzi, it seems his name got stuck on the ‘fast money high return’ scam. The problem is, and HYIP, despite its name, is NOT an investment, its a ponzi scheme. The daily active people who send in money over and over again trying to get a large amount paid back, KNOW that its a gamble they may lose it all. However, out of 1000 people who do it, I doubt more than 400 of them expect to lose. Let me give you an example, online casino slot machines, people who participate know going in, that they may lose their ‘investment’ as you call it. That up front knowledge of the possible loss or high return it not only ‘known’ its disclosed, “”"you might not win so be prepared to lose your money”"”
In an HYIP, nothing like that is ever disclosed and like I said about 600 people in 1000 are surprised when they get ripped off. Lack of disclosure, fraudulant remarks and comments about where the money is going DISQUALIFY an HYIP as any type of ‘investment’. I’ll pay you to show me a few HYIPs, that disclose, “next week, we will be taking all the ‘investment’ dollars and screwing you. These are the long lists of complaints received by the government types. Its sad, its not a ‘realistic investment’. But again, there is a sucker born everyday, so if I was not writing about it for at least a few people to read, they may get scammed also. By your rules, if you can get away with the lie, its OK….they should lose their money…suckers. That is not correct.

The highest realistic investments returns are indeed known to general public, yet the fact remains, hundreds of thousands of web surfers from all over the world, are (in majority cases) knowingly participating in such HYIPs. Short term investments, high returns, real ‘I got paid’ reports are some of the factors that too many people cannot resist.
Perhaps, it is human nature and there is nothing that laws and/or authorities can do to completely eradicate these entities.
They were there since Mr. Charles Ponzi times; they are here today, they will be here tomorrow in various shapes and forms. Unfortunately, we learn best lessons from our own mistakes.
