If someone wishes to bet for Pirate all they need to do is deposit their money in BTCS&T.
Those bets make no sense.

There are many paths in life my friend.

This allows all the naysayers to bet against him rather then just complain all day.   ::)

It makes sense if the payback for the bet is more than 7% / week.

The bet ends in less than 4 weeks.  4 weeks in BS&T at 7%/week compounded earns you 31%.  The bets are currently 3:1 in favour of not defaulting, and will presumably go further in that direction as the end of the month approaches.  So it's better to put your money into BS&T than to bet against the default at the moment.

So, where are the best in favour of the default?
If it's so easy money why don't they bet?
