i dont know about pirate but i dont think matthew would allow his name
to be used in fashion  to help pirate scam more .........

Well, that's the beauty of it. If the bet is properly bankrolled, Matt pays out, and his name doesn't take any hit, other than "Hehe, remember that time Matt bet that Pirate wasn't a Ponzi? What a goof."

I want to be clear here: This is NOT an accusation. I don't think this is what's happening. I hope it's not, in fact. But damn, is it a plausible explanation.

It would be bad for the community if most of it got labeled scammer...

Hardforks aren't that hard. It’s getting others to use them that's hard.

This is about the 20th scam this year.  Anyone with a lick of common sense stays far away from Bitcoin.  Not to mention its only uses are for Ponzi schemes, drugs, and other illegal things.  If anyone ever talks to you about bitcoin, just run.  Run far away.

Matt's got arguably  more to lose ,Pirates rep is done and dusted now ,win lose or draw
i doubt he will ever be trusted  again

If a  chief editor and owner of btc magazine and a spokeperson for the bitcoin community is involved in crooked ponzi or operating  a loaded bet funded  from the owner of the ponzi its not like everyone will forget and it will haunt him for life in the bitcoin community which he is very involved in

i dont think matt has $350,000 to lose so it looks like hes being funded by someone or
some group  but i dont think he would tarnish his own rep by being  a representative for something dishonest like BTC  market manipulation

wel see Smiley

Never. It's just a forum bet. There is nothing seedy or sinister involved.

I notice how you chose to use NOTHING in place of what should be NO ONE...right Wink

I hope you get paid Matthew....or at least know what you are doing, as this seems nuts.

i thought you  capped it  and then i come back and its like tripled and
im like WOW ,i musta missed something

and theres threads offering to buy pirates debt for 13%  and all these new rules for
PPT accounts adding to the craziness..........

People are suddenly scared they're going to lose everything, and that panic is causing them to recalculate the value of their investments. I personally think they should hold on to it all or nothing. I think the people on this forum don't represent bitcoin, I think we've had enough of the scams, tricks, lies, thieving, etc, and I'm glad my bet has already served many of it's multiple purposes. Can't wait until September 9th.
