Here is my argument for why the bet should continue until formal resolution is met as per the terms:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FbP3PlREppO8gXzvb_qcKC-N4rHpzXM15XB2oCcFoWA/edit?usp=sharingI have also included evidence that can be used as context to better interpret the wording of the terms and the intention behind them.
Based on the above, I believe the correct decision here would be to continue the bet either until an off-chain burn tax is implemented, Terra on-chain governance signals to repeal the request to exchanges, or Jan 1. I have nothing further to say and you are welcome to make your decision. I trust that you will make the right choice based on the facts. Alternatively, if you wish to follow DW's decision when he makes it, that works too. Either way is fine by me.
Thanks for your time.
The situation is confusing and complicated..
@nubcake_MeoW_ since your original agreement has a some conflict between clause, maybe this proposal of FatManTerrais fair enough for you..
I believe the context, spirit & intention behind the bet make this a clear decision. As the bet was placed before the burn tax’s implementation, the terms clearly referred to the tax at a certain stage and did not give carte blanche to an escape hatch as proven by the public messages. The community is still actively signalling for exchanges to implement the tax via on-chain governance, which gives me the impression that the void request is in bad faith. I believe the fair decision here would be to allow the bet to continue until formal resolution is found as per the terms & spirit.
Even though this is not mandated by the terms, which only require a >0.9% burn tax, I will make two concessions out of good faith because I believe they fall in line with the spirit of our agreement. One: despite the void clause only referring to the proposal phase, if Terra Classic governance formally repeals their currently active request to exchanges to implement the off-chain burn tax, I will agree to a void. Two: if a major exchange implements an off-chain burn tax of 0.2% or more per trade, I will resolve the bet as a win for nubcake. I think this concession fairly reflects both the change in circumstances and our original common understanding insofar as our intentions behind this bet.
