Well, there are three days left until the elections and the die is cast, as they say. I understand that as suchmoon and I are quite responsible we have made a bet as it should be done, with an amount that if we lose it will not be a problem for our finances at all, but it is a nice amount if you win it.
The latest polls I've seen, which if they don't show Trump winning at least show him gaining ground on Kamala, don't give us margins that allow us to be conclusive either. It seems that what happens in 3 or 4 swing states is what will decide who will be the next POTUS.
So I wish suchmoon luck even though I'd rather he didn't win, obviously.

Come on! It should be an amount that makes a difference, else what is the fun ... for us I mean
I think you guys have been long enough into crypto to have the odd bitcoin here and there. Anything less than 1 bitcoin is just not enough for the show Fun apart, the fact is that presidency is not even a question of a few states, the electoral system in the US is so funny that it may actually be a question of a few counties and a few groups of interests here and there. That is something that in my view should change, but I reckon is unlikely given the historical origins of the US and how it was built from the original colonies.
It is to note that it makes the system more fragile to gerrymandering, ballot stuffing and all other dirty tricks. An electoral system that is proportional to number of votes, even something like Nevada that is somewhat proportional, would better reflect the true opinion of the population, but also would make it much more difficult to rig because it would need a massively spread fraud. With the current system, fraud in a few counties could be enough.
