You presented terms that are too ambiguous for betting nomenclature.
Funny, it was YOU who presented the terms:
Yes, it is true, I can technically "interact" with IOTA on a "permissionless" level, but that interaction has no purpose unless you're first able to acquire the native token of the protocol. It doesn't really matter if you can interact with it in some meaningless way if you're not spending native coins.
In iota you can interact in a meaningful way (sending & receiving meaningful data) without aquiring tokens, so it's permissionless. period.
If you're sure about your statement above, put up that 50BTC.
