Title: Bitcoin will never... reach either $10 or $20. Place your bets now! Post by: RogerR on July 09, 2011, 03:54:06 PM I was wondering... would it influence the market if somebody put up something like this?
--- Enough of this trolling. Put your money where your mouth is! I ask for a reputable source to come forward and act on behalf of the Bitcoin community as fiduciary/escrow. Here's the name of the game: 1. Place your bet and state whether you believe it is either not gonna exceed above $20 or below 2. Transfer bet amount to fiduciary. 3. Watch how the market crumbles or soars. 4. Whichever mark gets hit first wins! 5. Payout will be: your bet + a fraction of the opposing bets determined by your fraction of your side of the bet if you win, nothing if you lose. Stop bitching, lets go! I pledge 10 bitcoins to reaching $20 before edit: floor + pledge requirement changed! --- ;D Title: Re: Bitcoin will never... reach either $5 or $20. Place your bets now!

Post by: Jaime Frontero on July 11, 2011, 05:19:25 AM I pledge 10 bitcoins to reaching $20 before $5. we have no basis for a bet, being in complete agreement.

If I was given 1,000,000,000:1 I would bet on $5 even if I didn't think it was likely to happen, but those pot odds present such a +EV opportunity I couldn't pass it up. if the pot gets big enough it would be worth it for some large holder of btc to try and purposefully push the price down to $5 temporarily just to collect the pot as it stands now 10 BTC has been pledged on the $20 side, and I didn't see any rules about a minimum betsize so a .00000001 BTC bet on $5 to collect 10 BTC is looking pretty attractive.

Place your bets now. edit: my pledge still holds if at least 10 more bitcoins are pledged as well (no fun if I play this game just by myself :p)! |
