I'm really stunned by the high values of BTC bet on Pirate's payout. Waiting for the announcements of BTC put out on Pirate's head
Anyone want to place bets on this? I'm working up some odds, both on the amount and the actual event.
Do you mean bets on whether the pirate can be caught or not?
Well, a bet that someone will put a price on his head would be, essentially, a price on his head.
I would avoid doing something like that, just in case he does get hurt over this. Don't want to get blamed.
I wasn't particularly serious, and had no real intention of place or accepting bets. We'd first have to establish the odds on us knowing the actual identity & location of pirate, which seems very unlikely. Seems unlikely that the individual who went to Vegas to meet the large lenders would have been anything other than a hired actor.
IMO, the price for the wallet(s) & fiat cash would be considerably higher than the price for a (mostly useless) pirate head. I'm not sure we've established how much actual money there might be to recover.
