That’s an oxymoron.

A Ponzi has a central issuer who takes your money, then pays back early investors.

Proof of Stake is a Ponzi, as you can’t get into the system without enriching early adopters.

Bitcoin vs Monero: while Bitcoin is focused on decentralization and a transparent monetary policy, Monero prioritizes privacy and ASIC resistance to allow anyone to mine with their home computer.

However, Monero has better confidentiality (hidden amounts) but isn’t necessarily more private due to the lower user base and smaller anonymity sets. If fewer users transact, there’s a tinier crowd in which they can hide – especially if some users are well-known or choose to reveal information about their transactions.

Also, it’s hard for Monero to identify potential inflation bugs – which is fine, as the project is designed to be cypherpunk money instead of digital gold.

Proof of Work is the special element that makes Bitcoin NOT a Ponzi.

There is no central issuer, anyone can become one of the issuers.

If you want to get coins, you don't have to buy them from someone else – you can mine them yourself.

A fair money system for a better world!

Phil Zimmermann was instrumental in enabling the creation + distribution of open source cryptography projects.

But MIT also helped him by publishing two books about PGP, which became widely available.

Was Phil Zimmermann part of the same cypherpunk scene which appeared on the cover of Wired magazine in 1993?

In S14 E15 of the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, he reveals that he was geographically distant from the movement, is more of a moderate than an anarchist, but he was on the cryptography mailing list and he does agree with some of the cypherpunk ideals.
