mircea_popescu: specifically : people who are already defeated take into consideration nonsense such as "oh but the feds have a 9x% conviction rate" as a ready-made excuse to settle.
mircea_popescu: 99.94% i say!
mircea_popescu: ha! the house clears 10% ? i had it pegged at about 8%
mircea_popescu: now i look at the market, prices fell an average of 40% across all product classes.
mircea_popescu: to this position where he jsut lost a good 90% of his value
mircea_popescu: and it finally means that about 70% of that value is actual assets.
mircea_popescu: nothing forces you into a 100% bitbet portofolio.
Neil: The Berkshire bet is another example, I think. The odds are higher that 3% (perhaps 15%) but friction prevents realization.
nubbins`: Neil: well, what, equal amounts on both sides? within 10%?
Neil: mircea_popescu: So regarding http://bitbet.us/bet/635/1btc-10-000-usd/ and our friend 1K4Fs, I'd be happy to bet real BTC that 1K4Fs loses money regardless of outcome. It's extremely likely (>90%) and given an integral of payoff against probability, I think it's clear betting both ways is a losing proposition. Well, to me at least, which is all that matters.
Neil: 50% doesn't weaken the point? OK.
Neil: mircea_popescu: But of course. I'm not stupid. The 16% is a good example: the house wins the more people rationally take all that is available "for (near) free".
jurov: Neil that exact case would require manual intervention "o difficulty prediction is > 16% ? drop the weight sharply"
Neil: Adn the 8BTC bet at the last minute of the "16% bet" just in the last 24 hrs supports my other claim of "betting at the last minute, under linear decay, pays".
Neil: 50% isn't normally considered irrelevant
Neil: Well that's 1 out of 2. So 50% sofar
