@Condi, would love to see how long this transaction takes. Also, how much value is lost during the lag period. I know bitcoin is "the future" but 2 weeks is a long time in this volatility!
You can check that yourself - just put the address Condi posted into a Bitcoin explorer and it will show the transactions to that address and their status - it currently has three confirmations, so depending on the wallet Condi is using may already be spendable, though 6 is usually considered "fully" confirmed. Actually looking properly it seems to have already been moved.

Full respect to Dimots for settling the debt. Thank you for doing so, and he's shut a few people up on here. (Although cue the arguing about the technicalities of how the bet was settled).
However, it is the season of good will, and there are people in the world who are far worse off than Dimots or I, so would Dimots have any objections if it was donated to a charity?
EDIT - Bitcoin has been confirmed as arriving. Cost 0.00015 bitcoin transaction fees. And this is the only bitcoin I own or have ever owned.

A food bank would be a nice gesture considering how many BTC gamblers will be spending Christmas. Edited by Condi on Wednesday 12th December 18:35

Although in the spirit displayed above I’d be happy to donate £200 to a charity.
Not sure it's up to you, surely you settle the bet and the winner decides what is done with the winnings. Unbelievable!
Dimots and Condi, clearly gentleman. Top form from the pair of you.

Why not just set up a Coinbase account - and ping it back to yourself in GBP, no point faffin around!
Unless they have changed things since I last tried this is not possible. They only allow SEPA payments, so the process is:1)Ensure your bank account accepts SEPA payments (not all do)
2)Transfer some money from your bank account to Coinbase using SEPA to authenticate the account. This will cost £25 in fees if you use Santander
3)Once this has been authenticated sell your Bitcoin (obviously at less than spot) and transfer the GBP back to your bank account using SEPA (again paying £25 if you use Santander)
Crypto it's the future I tell you.
Bitcoin just dropped under $3300 total cap now $105 billion.

Am I getting this right? This Bitcoin was worth ZERO in 2010, and now it's worth $105 billion, and the people who're holding it are somehow stupid losers drawn into a con?Erm, is this some kind of Pistonheadsthink?
Believe me, if I had something that was worth nothing in 2010 and $105 billion now I'd be kinda very dam' happy about it.
Anyway, where's that weasel ?
A charity is owed a wager he lost.

Take a break from being deliberately disingenuous. Erm, is this some kind of Pistonheadsthink?

You know exactly where on this type of curve 99% of retail speculators get in. It’s the very thing that defines the curve.
You also fully understand what happens to speculators spending habits during periods of anomalous, unrealised gains and why that further exacerbates the end losses. Likewise you also fully understand to impact of leverage and that it was a key driver in pushing this bubble up.
By all means vent your desperate need to trawl PH looking for anyone in financial services to blame for your own mistakes and to satiate that lifelong chip on your shoulder but pretending you don’t know exactly how bubbles and scams work is a farce too far as you know exactly and all too well exactly how these events work
