Scams: follow up video response

I got a lot of engagement for my last video about overusing the word scam in crypto, so here is a follow up video. In essence, the word scam has a specific meaning, and simply not liking a project doesn’t make it a scam. Let’s continue to call out scams, to call out s**tcoins, and not confuse the two. Looking forward to continuing the conversation!

At the point when he's gone it's too late to now say it's a scam. What are the tell tell signs and what should we do then to point it out as a potential "scam"?

wish you addressed BCH which is constantly labelled a scam, they were using the label before Roger did anything sketchy out of spite and of course he wasn't even behind its creation.

I am pleased you’re sharing this message. Words do have meaning. Labeling all non-bitcoin projects as scams is inaccurate, may stifle innovation, and can mislead those new to this space.

Is the definition of scam from the OED? Otherwise, scam.

Last week. I had a salad only to find out that there were Lima Beans in the salad. I don't like Lima Beans, so i will say SCAM. The Salad people are in on it. Must be a conspiracy! Thanks for sharing. Actually that is a good definition and easy to understand of what is really a Scam. Maybe those Salad People are actually ok. Sincerely JR

Danny Brewster's story isn't so simple... It doesn't look like he was the scammer himself, and he's active in the crypto community now trying to make NeoBee's customers whole again.

Mulberry pie is a scam until I try it for myself.

BitConnect, we can all agree it's a scam, right?
