Anyone else has the courage to go all in on Hillary? By all in I mean betting ALL of your bitcoins for a win.

There's some people that's doing this. They are literally going bet all of their bitcoins because they are convinced the election is rigged and Trump cannot win, why not go all in then? Maybe this is a rare opportunity to make a lot of money. Im thinking about it but I don't think I have the balls.

Unless you have no emotional problems with loosing all your Bitcoin, I would consider it highly irrational and dangerous behavior. It's not a "rare opportunity" - it is just plain crazy to risk everything on a single bet.

There is a significant probability that Trump can win the election. Even if polls show an advantage for Hillary, a Trump victory is still well within the polling variance. And there are reports of statistical manipulations in favor of Hillary as well. In my opinion, a Trump victory is even more probable, because Trump is likely to be able to mobilize a previously unseen high number of former non-voters that will vote for him just because they are fed up with the establishment.

At least election turnout for Hillary will be significantly worse than polls suggest.

ya.ya.yo!
