What will be interesting now is what he does with what he believes to be profits from an illegal venture.
Keep them, presumably? After all, he risked - or at least tied up - a substantial chunk of his own money in order to convince others that yes, he genuinely did believe that BTCS&T was a ponzi scheme in the face of cries of "troll!" and "put your money where your mouth is or shut up!" from Pirate supporters. I think that more than pays off any ethical obligations he might have.

First off:  As someone who has an investment in BTCS&T let me say that I personally have no problem with him keeping the bet.

HOWEVER some of team ponzi (namely JoelKatz) have gone on about receipt of stolen money.  So I was just wondering if they were going to play by their own rules.

I'm of the opinion that the winnings should be donated to the OP.
