I'm not quite sure of the logic behind this belief, which multiple people seem to have. I'm no expert, but, from what I could tell, BitConnect was something quite different than simply Bitcoin; for one, the latter didn't lend money to people. Either wy, I actually don't think Bitconnect, can really be blamed for anything really. Yes, I "feel bad" for anyone who lost money --by the way, I DID invest a very very small sum into BCC, and then promptly withdrew it, this was all only about a week before the crash...--if only not for the fact that I know how that feels. BUT, it's no different than if I were to have lost it all on the blackjack table. I knew it was a bad idea, but I did it anyway... The casino didn't call me to come play.
