<prompt> Human: A new variant of bitcoin, named spacecoin just surfaced in my country. They rent bitcoin mining machines, and the mined coin from your machine goes to your account. Then you either sell the coins to the company for a lower price, or find a buyer yourself for a higher price. A contact of mine claims to have earned 5000 bucks around 1200 euros1700 dollars here in 50 days. He takes this thing really serious though; he invited a lot of people in with his referral code, so he gets a little more than normal. Very naive guy, so I doubt hes lying.I have profited a small amount from buying and selling recently and I dont know what to do with it. I thought I could buy the smallest package these guys offer since I dont care happens to that money.My concern is that this thing might a ponzi scheme or some other kind of scam. I have the money to try it, but lets hear the opinions of you redditors first.  <response>: The problem with different cryptocurrencies is that theyre only worth what someone will give you for it. What I mean by that is that you might make money at the beginning. Youll see that youre making money and invest more into it. Youll be making so much money that youll take out loans in order to make even more money!And then the steam runs out and cryptocurrency number 2383 is worthless and youve lost all your money.I dont recommend investing in bitcoin much less a different cryptocurrency.
