Matthew:

To increase the lulz factor of this thread, could you please update the first post (or another post, whatever) from time to time with the total amount of all bets you have accepted?


I am doing it already in #bitcoin. I don't think it's necessary to do it in the thread. I want to surprise everyone when it hits 10,000BTC.


Yeah, it'd be good to see who owes what actually.  Might make things easier later on.

There are some private wagers who want to be private, mostly because they are embarrassed pirate investors who want to hedge. For that reason I can't.

increase if it is still allowed:

250BTC

1EzdZBu6DJUqScXFbRYbTXPqTcXNAUKAxc

this makes this the biggest bet of the year for me, eclipsing my bet on Jorge Lorenzo to win the motogp championship Smiley
For the record I think you're crazy Matt.  If you win I won't be left with many bitcoins, but I'll consider that the bitcoin community pulled through to be consolation.  Best of luck everyone, but SOMEONE is going to end up unhappy no matter what happens.

Crazy times.

thanks for accepting this ;-)

Good luck on winning as I have placed a bet for 50% of my exposure to pirate, therefore I get the same whether pirate defaults or not.

thanks

I need to hedge vs a default. Hopefully you can waive the post count requirement. FWIW, I do have OTC feedback, which I value.

Let me know if you accept this bet to save me the hassle of an escrow. Thanks.

is this not obvious?

All I ask is I get the same bet granted to everyone else.  Smiley

I'd like to up my bet.  Go ahead and put me at the max.

Jesum.....have any of you bettors really thought this through? 

Don't you think a guy willing to put up $100,000 with 2:1 just MIGHT know something you don't? 

Alarm bells are ringing. 

I am a trusted trader!  Ask Inaba, Luo Demin, Vanderbleek, Sannyasi, Episking, Miner99er, Isepick, Amazingrando, Cablez, ColdHardMetal, Dextryn, MB300sd, Robocoder, gnar1ta$ and many others!

Maybe he presumes to know too much, like that the aggregate rep of the bettors amounts to ten grands BTC

I'm pretty sure that the bet is 1:1, as was clarified early in the thread. That is to say, if you put up 10 BTC, he would pay 10 BTC (thus giving 100% ROI).  I may be wrong on betting lingo, though.  Even with that said, though, someone willing to put up ~$100,000 against what many people feel is a "sure thing" is almost certainly not shooting blind, but that's what makes this interesting.  I'm in on the bet to hedge against Pirate, as well as to just have some more fun in the $#!%storm that will develop in the next couple of weeks.  SOMEONE BRING ME SOME POPCORN!

It's actually 1:1 (or "2 for 1") but that thought has crossed my mind as well.
