Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Think about it. He get's to keep the half million and pays out the 10k to the "told you so"s.
Perfect symmetry.

Thanks for the good idea! I'm gonna ask him if he's interested. UPDATE: He declined and no action has happened since I asked. I guess he's not interested in backing up my silly bets. |

It has to be a pirate supporter, but I don't think it would be pirate himself..

Maybe he has a bet for 50kBTC running that those fucking cowards would not even bring the 10k... would be interesting what the real cut-off condition with his partner is.

Good move, and quite obvious if he is really going to pay. If not, it would be a double scam. |
