How can it be argued that taking almost 1 million $ in bets without any initial intention to pay in case of a loss is not scamming ?
Sorry but all those people, matthew, amir, patrick, donald, pirate etc. are giving an awful image of bitcoin and the facts that these behavior are semi tolerated is awful as well.
Bitcoin needs one things it is trust and some form of regulation.

there are already enough investors onboard at the moment .........
