If you're betting that Pirate will pay out, you can invest in https://glbse.com/asset/view/TYGRR.BOND-P
It is a bond worth 1BTC stake in BS&T.
Since Pirate has defaulted the bonds are not currently being bought back and are priced around 0.6-0.7BTC
But if Pirate repays then the bond will return to 1 BTC.

Just out of curiosity, if Pirate does default, will those bonds become not back by anything, and basically be like fiat currency?

Worse than fiat currency, because they are backed by entirely nothing (not even the force of the government) and run the risk of being delisted, effectively removing its value as a store of value. Imagine money that not only nobody wants, but may also disappear whenever.

Isn't the GLBSE fantastic? I'd trust it with my Life.....cereal.

Just wanted to point out to anyone interested, not sure if it's been mentioned in this thread already

If you're betting that Pirate will pay out, you can invest in https://glbse.com/asset/view/TYGRR.BOND-P

It is a bond worth 1BTC stake in BS&T.

Since Pirate has defaulted the bonds are not currently being bought back
(https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/p-82573)
and are priced around 0.6-0.7BTC

But if Pirate repays then the bond will return to 1 BTC.

The bonds are being artificially raised in price as a hedge to cover the MNW bets, IMO. As someone here mentioned and as I'm many others have done, if you can get bonds below 0.5 you can effectively have a no risk bet on the possibility of Pirate default.

It doesn't protect against the possibility of MNW not paying anyone, of course.

Matthew, it seems these bets must be getting quite burdensome to handle. Do you need any partners to take in the bets in trust, nicely format them and then pass them through to you?

Thank you for the offer (and yes it was keeping me up at night), Rassah is already doing a fine job of organizing them independently to match against my sloppy records. For the record.

Yes. I was on Satoshi Superstars too. Stop bringing attention to my behind the scenes links with everyone on this giant collusion of a scam that I have obviously perpetrated. You're ruining everything!

That's worse return than a bet at evens. I'd escrow bets at evens here between any two parties, 1% or 1BTC fee whichever is lower. :p

I'd like to place a 100BTC bet, if a trusted member is willing to act as an escrow agent.

CR

I'll escrow it for you, no charge. Send me a PM, or just send it to my public firstbits address, and I'll up my own bet to 130 BTC (from 30).

In light of recent news that pirate has indeed paid out one individual (and 2 reported although unconfirmed), I am even more confident that I will indeed win this bet as I had originally hoped. I've decided to raise the maximum bet to 1,000BTC per person.

What don't you get about "I have no affiliation, connections, agreements, collusion, investments, interest, sexual experiences or shared offspring with pirateat40 aka Trendy Shavings."

Matthew is actually colluding with me.... Kiss

Suckers!

Uh huh. He shares offspring with me. Well, shared DNA clones, anyway.
