It does sound too good to be true. I won’t argue that. And I know it’s not the right investment for most people. However, there is heavy taxation for claiming, withdrawing, transferring, airdropping, etc. which is used to fund the payouts so older holders (who sell) are still contributing to the payout pool. That being said, as with many other investments, DRIP’s growth does depend on new money being added to the investment pool. One could argue that the same can be said for social security, Bitcoin, and perhaps even fiat currency. My dollar today is worth much less than my grandfather’s dollar 50 years ago.
I am willing to take the risk for the possibility of getting the reward. I view this as a lottery ticket investment. Some of these lottery tickets are worthless and some see very large gains. These are my experiences and this shouldn’t be taken as financial advice. Thank you for the response!
