Just seeing this.
Hilarious lol
I just finished up my public bet with Balaji, not sure I'm ready for another one yet. Will consider the terms but I've got a feeling this timeframe is US political based more than anything else.

Ok I Love Bama, having known you for around 25 years I don't think escrow is necessary and I'd only do this to support one of the NGOs I'm involved with.
Here are my proposed terms:
- May 5, 2025 we'll compare what $1k would've done since May 5, 2023 in Bitcoin vs S&P.
If the Bitcoin is higher, I'll donate $1k; if S&P is higher, you donate $1k.
I'd prefer the beneficiary be Friends of Crestwood Park, but I'd also be fine with Ventana Wildlife Society, Vitamin Angels or Operation:USA.
But if you prefer to continue your regular contributions to Girls Without Father Figures of Columbia, that is fine as well.

I think he’s timing the BTC halving cycle

This will be fun. Sounds good. If I win, you can give $1,000 USD to a family in need here in Colombia and I will record it to share here. ($1,000 USD is an insane gift here)
Side note: I will be in Auburn all summer. You and the wife should come down one weekend.

It's simple math.

Surprised this isn't Bitcoin vs (Specific Stock). Would be a colossal failure for bitcoin not to beat the S&P over the next 2 years

It's impossible.
But Big_Sur is a good dude and he will be happy with his donation to the family here in Colombia.

The bet is: I lose, I donate to charity of my choice.
You lose, you donate to the Columbian lady of your choice.
It's a win:win for you - and I'll be donating to worthy causes regardless of this wager!
To the point of S&P vs BTC: I am confident S&P will be up 2 years from today. BTC might be worth $100k or might be $2k.

Could disappear tomorrow and my life is exactly the same.
Bitcoin is math. I look forward to your $1,000.

I made a decent amount of money on NVDA. Good choice.
NVDA is up about 12-13% since my post. BTC is down about 10%. NVDA is probably a 5-600 stock in 2025.

So are you taking the bet and escrowing money or not?
Don’t bump threads unless you have the balls to put up cash like Big Sur.

I thought I took the bet on May 5th when I said NVDA will outperform.. BTC was about $29,500 and NVDA was about $280. I am not leaving $500-2000 in an escrow for two years. That’s dumb. I’ll just Zelle or Venmo you the money if you win, and you can do the same if I am right. Let’s just make it $1,000 instead of this $1500 range.
And, don’t go starting threads if you are going to get your feelings hurt by someone bumping it when you are already getting your teeth kicked in.
I am not a hater of BTC and have a relatively significant % of money in crypto.
I won’t bump your precious little thread anymore.
