Hello!
Hey heres another technicality. Hear me out.


The title is that hes giving 100% ROI AWAY to ANYONE who thinks pirate is a fraud.

So, first we have AWAY.

Meaning, to be separate or not with Matthew. So, by sending money to his OWN address, the bitcoins are still with him, and not AWAY.

Secondly, we have ANYONE. Meaning, any person including people who aren't matthew.

So by sending money to himself, he breaks these technicalities. So hes scamming himself. Matthew, I'd like to hear your opinion on this.

I wouldn't drop to his level. The case is clear to anyone without resorting to his own flawed logic.

Argue with an idiot and he beats you at being a jerk.

If it wasnt clear thats a joke, im just using idiot logic Tongue

I'm trying to learn about Bitcoin.

Can someone please recommend to me an online forum where adults discuss this currency in a rational, polite manner without the silliness exhibited here?

Your time is valuable.  Thank you.

Based on his own technicality, didn't he scam himself? Since his statement says, if I lose I'll send 20 BTC to that address in the example, doesn't he still have to send the BTC to himself?

That's what he did.

Where are the transaction IDs for the multi thousand BTC sends?

Which ones? He sent 20 BTC to that adress, which was his.

Any place but the 'Gambling' subforum would be a good place to start...

He didn't take anyone's money..... He played a bad prank and lost a lot of respect.....

He took advantage of his "bet" to dump his Pirate's debt while pumping up the price. So it's a double scam.

How so?  No money changed hands as a result of MNW's bet, (other than the example 20BTC) so technically he hasn't stolen anything from anyone... UNLIKE the multiple ponzi schemes and fake exchange hacks.  If MNW didn't actually take anyone's BTC up front, how did he "dump his Pirate's debt"?


Because with his "bet" he slowed the rate of decrease of the price of (phucked) Pirate's debt, just enough for him to sell the amount he owned with minimum loss for him and maximum loss for who took his words as serious. Clear enough? It's called "pump and dump".

Really this bitcoin experiment is showing us that we need some sort of system where by we pay 20% to the government for services like policing etc and a small percentage to the banks for handling transactions so we dont get scammed.

Brilliant

I was wondering all day "what is that bet everyone is talking about?" Is it this one? I am giving 100% ROI to anyone who honestly thought this wasn't a joke. 1GLuTrFW6Bzu54ej6nkoxRA8esHBUHmXPY

Well so much for the youtube video of boos, hisses and tomatoes in london that I was waiting to watch. I guess it's time to forget about this show. It's over.

The statement also said that it will be Mihai Alisie who talks for Bitcoin Magazine at the conference. Personally I'm happy with how this is turning out, and I will continue to support Bitcoin Magazine.
