As long as he deduces that $500k is less than his expected value (I actually don't know how he'd do this without information of what $ are or what bitcoin is), the only rule is that he can't look at a chart, or get price information from other sources. To stay consistent with his claim, "current price ($500k) and his expected future price" are the only things that matter, the only sources of information he can access are my offer and his mind. Since the offer is qualitatively below his expected price, he cannot refuse and stay consistent. Rothbard on the limits of praxeology. He states that you must determine the facts from historical evidence in order to apply praxeology and make forecasts.

Nope, it's because everyone must trust the government. - Strawman 2: "you don't know how inefficient the traditional market is." Nope, I agree it's horribly inefficient, but that's not because they don't have the tech to make it better. They're in a regulatory prison. Have you heard of Digicash? Ravencoin is trying to replace DTCC, which is basically government. Fiat money has bloated the financial sector. In a bitcoin world, equities will be relatively less important.
