Maybe all of that could be available, everything related to investment could be a scam, depending on several factors. So far, BTC is still in a bearish trend, but I don't know for sure whether BTC will still exist in the next 10 or 20 years. It all depends on the fundamentals, community and policies of a country.

I agree that almost all forms of investment carry risks, and the potential for fraud can occur in various investment instruments if investors don't conduct proper research. However, it's important to distinguish between legitimate investment assets and fraudulent schemes that simply exploit their name. Bitcoin itself isn't a scam, although it's undeniable that many individuals use the Bitcoin name to run fraudulent investments or Ponzi schemes.

looking at prices for now, bitcoin will not be scammed. we can also invest in bitcoin.

I agree that Bitcoin has now become one of the most recognized digital assets and enjoys a higher level of trust than many other crypto projects. With its large market capitalization, growing adoption, and a network that has proven secure over the years, Bitcoin cannot be compared to crypto projects designed to commit fraud.

why are there still those who think btc is scam even though the evidence is clear, bitcoin has been used by many people for payment and trading systems.

Some people still consider Bitcoin a scam because of bad experiences with crypto-themed scams, not because of Bitcoin itself. It's true that Bitcoin is used by millions of people worldwide as an investment asset, a means of payment in various businesses, and a trading instrument.

it seems unsuitable to link a scam with bitcoin because bitcoin itself is a digital currency without anyone watching and controlling.

I agree that it's inaccurate to call Bitcoin a scam. Bitcoin is a digital asset and a decentralized blockchain network, so it's not controlled by any single party or company. However, that doesn't mean the Bitcoin world is free from scams.

BTC seems to be able to scam if no one is interested in BTC anymore.

If at some point no one is interested in Bitcoin, the price will likely drop drastically as demand disappears. However, this doesn't necessarily mean Bitcoin is a scam. A scam is a deliberate act of deception designed to exploit victims through deception or manipulation.

Maybe what is meant is whether BTC can deceive us, if that means it is true that in the world of BTC there are a lot of crimes but those who do are certain people not bitcoin, so you could say BTC is not suitable is called a scam or not.

Bitcoin, as a technology and digital asset, is not inherently a scam. It is an open, decentralized blockchain network that has been operating for years with a high level of security. Therefore, it is incorrect to call Bitcoin itself a scam.

it is likely to affect the buying and selling power of Bitcoin because of this case, but while it is still possible, this coin will still continue to be traded.

I agree that a specific incident or negative sentiment can indeed affect Bitcoin's buying and selling pressure in the short term. When adverse news emerges, some investors may become more cautious or choose to sell their assets, leading to increased volatility.
