someone has faith in matthew ,hopefully its not pirate though 
Now that would be funny... and frighteningly plausible.
OK, let's assume that I'm Pirate, and I have a significant portion of the bitcoins in existence in my control, which I have no intention of paying back. I could buy a lot of travel time to get to Cancun and start mixing mojitos by giving someone well-known in the community a small chunk of that, and telling them to go spread FUD in the form of betting on me.
Man, I hope I'm wrong on that.
if pirate is funding this bet and also calling the shots on the
BTCST repayment schedule its like playing poker with someone
who gets to choose his own cards ......
i dont know about pirate but i dont think matthew would allow his name
to be used in fashion to help pirate scam more .........
