I wonder how this works, is it necessary for Sam to acknowledge the bet? What happens if more than one person wants to take the same bet?



The bet is only open to the first VC to publicly take it I believe.


It would great if there are multiple bets on both sides (crowdfunding for each side). I'd question the legality of this but more money for charity would be great!

If there's enough demand, it might make sense to make a site/app and pick a side (maybe use Stripe to put money into some sort of escrow account).
