There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

With 100% certainty that delivery would indeed occur, then I'd pay up to .85 btc for 1 btc in a year.

Without any risk, it's merely a question of time-value of money. Someone planning to just hold their btc for a year should rationally be willing to pay up to .99 btc for 1 btc in a year. I plan to use mine for things, thus my number is lower.

some bitcoin bank can just lend it to some short-sellers. Of course, I will charge them a lot.
