#10 If you win the bet, what percent of 10k btc would you expect the losers to actually cough up? (the remainder getting scammer labels). This question gauges your comparative trust between pirate and generic forum members.

No comment on number. I trust the betters more than porate however, as I know many of them.

If you call your parents neglecting your education amd restricting you from educational activities because "God" as being homeschooled, then yes. I would better equate it to jail.

Gah, that sucks. I was homeschooled myself, although at the other end of the spectrum: hippie parents who didn't do much more than give me a math textbook to work through. One of the best things they ever did for me.

To have a place for trolls to gather for the impending storm of FUD regardless of what side wins the bet. This community is rather drolly predictable afterall.

"Where do I send the 10,000BTC?"
"My BitStamp account, the only exchange I like these days."

do you think the FED putting pressure on governments to "crack down" on bitcoin is inevitable if the project gains any sort of real traction (like 100$ a coin)?

They're already sending out their surrogates to do hamfisted and poorly constructed powerpoint presentations to banking conferences. I think this is already being manifested because it's seen such stability at 10 dollars.

Trusting people too eagerly. Opportunity. No, it's what made me who I am so I must embrace it.

Can't say. I will say that I believe there are just as many jaded, selifish and controlling agendas in Bitcoin as there are in the FED, because you can't change people so quickly.

What is the real risk for you? I guess you would not give any numbers but are 10.000BTC a little, moderate or big part of you overall balance?

#19 How do space and time and energy work at very high energies or short times?  This question is a bit of a troll, I'm looking for a complete and self consistent theory of quantum gravity.

#21 if you are betting with your own funds on your own risk, please comment this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=69272.0 thread .

"even if I had the $5,000"

edit: a few words on the real estate market in Korea: freaking crazy, never understood the system even though quite a few Koreans tried to explain it to me.

Still the question remains if you didn't have spare funds in abundance in march, how come now? If there have been circumstances (heritage etc.) which made you wealthy now you shouldn't blow it away so easily. Just my 0.2BTC
