Title: rpietila, willing to put BTC where your mouth is?
Post by: Dyaheon on May 04, 2013, 12:40:46 PM
Since you didn't reply in the Wall Observer thread, and to not derail it further.

You've been preaching $300k-1M+ USD / BTC this year, so why not bet some BTC on it? Surely you have some extra sitting in cold reserves, considering you're so super-bullish. Easy way to gain some from me and probably others willing to take you on.

I was thinking the bet should be something like this:

There will be meaningful volume (1k+ BTC) traded at over $300k per BTC during 2013 on the top bitcoin exchange. The volume is to discount technicalities like bugs showing unreal highs, which sometimes happens.

I would be willing to do 1:1, and any 0-100 BTC amount.

I proposed this bet in the first instance - so yeah, count me in - escrowed bet all the way in.

Is this a joke?..

Who in their right mind would put money on Bitcoins being $300k each THIS YEAR??

Goodluck if this happens...

I kinda agree with him on the $300/mBTC possibility should bitcoin really take off - eventually! But even so, this year? ;D Surely it will take at least five to seven years to go that high, possibly considerably longer.

$10/mBTC within two to three years, like Elwar suggested, looks much more likely, but not probable. I think this may happen due to a major catalytic event which boosts widespread demand for bitcoin beyond 500.000 or so nerds like us. :)

He's been preaching we will get to $300k/BTC this year because only 1.5M BTC are in speculative hands (he has his sources), and thus he will be buying all BTC available until we achieve that, and thus he is a supernode, and thus blah blah blah

I'm willing to bet we won't see $300k/BTC this year, as many others I guess. Rpietila: willing to put BTC where your mouth is?

I would definitely take this bet, too. If I win, awesome, and if I lose, even more awesome!

However, somewhere I believe Pietila clarified that he only places 50%(?) confidence on that outcome, so this is probably not going to happen, unfortunately :-\

He's not going to take the bet, he's just saying all of that to hype... Don't take the guy so seriously he makes a lot of bold statements with loaded words, much like used car salesmen... You're a fool if you take him seriously, even more so to take the time to call him out. Better to spend your time on more productive endeavors..

300k bitcoin is just rediculous. 300$ btc more realistic

And so far he still has not posted in response to this thread.

Big surprise.

He must be busy with his Mega-Node thing-a-ma-bob leet club for gangnam style peeps.

I still donot get the meaning of this super-node thing. What does it mean?

i wonder how much maintenance is involved in a supernode. i'm only
running 6 rigs and that sometimes feels like a part time job.

He said we will never see 100$ again i can bet for 100 000$ that we will see 100$ again but reptelia guy dont want to put money wheres his mouth is.

 unfortunately for bitcoin, i think that if a lot of bubbles born and then explode before 1000$/BTC, people will lose confidence in bitcoin and we all fail (speaking for people that whant to use bitcoin as a currency, not as a methond to get rich quick)

I'd be willing to chuck in a few bitcoins :-)

Since he's only 50% sure why not make a 4:1 bet with him. Great odds for him.

I already offered a 2:1 bet on his favor. But him refusing just demonstrated the fact that he is so delusional that he thinks that he will talk the price up saying that he's sure that we will reach $300K per 1 BTC this year. But, obviously, he doesn't even believe the BS he spreads.

I dont know why you guys care about this clown.

I meant the fcker is a silver dealer for god's sake (have you met one that actually knows the fck he talks about? )

Oh and he used broker to buy btc..... wow that sounds so cool...

I dont claim to be supernode BS... but i'm not small potato. So if this dumb fck wants to play, i'll bet 5k BTC. Take it or shut the fck up.

OK, the guy is a little.... flamboyant ( best word I could think of off the top of my head...) and a big dreamer .
But he seems to be a businessman. Good or bad we don't know.

Why should he answer to all these little taunting bets you people are throwing at him?
Actually I don't understand why he answers all the trolling on the forums at all.
If I had what he says he does... I doubt I would write much on this  forum at all .....
