[NO LONGER SELLING] 40 BTC Bet with Micon regarding BFL

[John (John K.)]

I am willing to bet up to 100 coins on this at 1:1

A bet of a bet. 

On a side note, I don't think it's fair to ask the premium considering that the results aren't clear yet. A fair value would be around 15~BTC considering that you've only put 20 BTC on line. Anyone interested should just go 1:1 with someone else.

Now, BTC is worth over $200, and that 40 BTC (total bet) is just too much for me to gamble with.  That's more money than I have ever really had.  I still very much believe BFL will deliver, but not having that money in-hand is eating me away...

So, I would like to sell my bet with Micon, if anyone is interested.  The agreed-upon details are below, but the essence of the bet is, as long as BFL beats Avalon's power figures and delivers by July 1st, the bet is won.

I don't think BFL will deliver by July 1.

Don't get me wrong I hope they do deliver by July 1st, if only to see that dumbarse Micon eat his words.

Given Micon is offering the bet at 1:1 I can't see you selling your action and trying to get a profit out of it still. Your best chance if you can't afford it would be trying to sell your bet for 19.5 / 19 BTC etc, losing a bit to minimize your risk.

I've spoken with my wife about this, and we've agreed to keep the bet as it is.
