I strongly believe seatbets drastically improve security while driving, and agree on making them a default standard in every car. Yet I am not willing to bet 1 BTC on me not crashing while wearing a seatbelt, nor on me crashing while not wearing it. I get the point, but if a hardfork happens, the wager is already in. Just keep your coins in the correct branch from your point of view, and sell coins from the other to buy more.

Aside from the metaphor making no sense, the goal of BIP-110 is a soft fork rather than a chain split / hard fork. Even if there is a chain split there won't be replay protection. Thus you're spewing nonsense.

Social attacks on consensus should have a cost. If people are unwilling to put any money up front on the bet then no one should take them seriously. The fact that this offer has been made multiple times and not a single knots fanboy has accepted tells me this is not a serious effort. I mean if it’s an emergency you would think the people pushing for it would be a little more convicted.
