A: Because I think this thread is good for the community. The more people that bet in this thread, the better off the community is, and I thus benefit indirectly as a member of the community.

I disagree. I think all this betting is divisive, and causing the Bitcoin community to fragment. If MNW loses and is forced to pay out it will be like crucifying a productive member of the community just to prove some point.

We need to remember that as a community our real enemies are forex fees, Paypal, inflation and wire transfer fees. We should be focusing on that, not on the ponzi/no ponzi squabbling. Bitcoin is not a HYIP and should not be associated with them to this degree.

Nothing is wrong with Goat's reputation here. He did exactly what was advertised, in allowing people to profit off of Pirate's ponzi scheme while keeping their assets liquid. This meant you could use these bonds as a gambling device to get pirate-interest, but then sell them before the (inevitable) default announcement.

+1

And man, I didn't expect buyers were that eager in the end.


I got incredibly lucky and sold all my TYGRR-BOND.P after holding it for about 6 weeks. (~40% interest on a small holding). I sold on Aug. 8th after getting a bad feeling.

I was fully aware that it was a ponzi the entire time. (you can check my post history).

My model for Pirate's ponzi predicted a default sometime from Aug-Oct this year.

The thing about ponzi's is that they always default SOONER than even the most bearish expect. This is because by the time everyone has heard of them, there is no money left. If you have heard of a HYIP, chances are you are already in the endgame/sucker stage, simply due to the required growth pattern.

My GLBSE coins are now all in YABMC, BITBOND and PUREMINING, and I recommend these GLBSE assets, because they seem at least somewhat legit. Although I expect a 30-50% chance of getting burned on these investments.

How can you possibly think this random stranger is earning 1% a day (~3600% APR), especially after the whole pirate fiasco...

Absolutely loving the recent upswing. Keep up the good work!

How about PPT.D? It should mature in a few minutes...

PPT.D will be paid in approximately 59 minutes - the funds have been sitting there for a while.

Everything looks good. Thank you PatrickHarnett.
My favorite zeros are gone for good. Now what? Smiley
I need to find my coins a new home where they can earn interest. I am not trading those so they can stay put for extended time. PatrickHarnett, if you have something with dividend reinvestment plan, let me know.

Cheers! 


How about mining bonds?

RoloPolo is in major damage control mode today rageposting about making bets

Have you gotten your money back from Pirate yet?

Have you made your bet yet?   I'm guessing that's probably a no hey.

Not enough forum cred. Plus the bet is not well-defined enough to risk being labeled a scammer over a potential disagreement (although I think the outcome is going to be quite clear).

As far as being a coward, I believe it is very profitable to be one--especially at times when others are being greedy.

Maybe mythology can teach us a lesson here!

Nice job!

So with an average bet of 0.1btc you've made about 1500btc?
At the moment, they've made 4699.61641731 BTC.

Wow so avg. bet is more like BTC0.3

The worst (best?) thing about these gambling services are that they are right on your computer all the time.

Its like having a roulette table, blackjack table and lottery linked to your bank account and set up at your office desk 24/7!

It's pretty hilarious watching the Pirate-folk having their little meltdown and pulling out random poker statistics that have nothing to do with anything.

It will be especially funny seeing which ones will disappear after Pirate defaults. Greed is one helluva drug!
399  Economy / Lending / Re: Bryan Micon's List of BTC Ponzi Schemes that should not be listed as "Lending" on: August 10, 2012, 11:13:51 PM
Clearly, Pirate is recirculating the flows of the gross BTCUSD capital-flow ratios through a proprietary securities algorithmic trading process by which the future net present value discounted interest rate is projected onto present equity value market-velocity parameters!

Thanks, it all makes so much sense now!

also xfd at the scuba
