AP ('Assassination Politics'; https://cryptome.org/ap.htm ) can be considered to be 'death arbitrage' with a few key differences: The person who will die isn't part of the agreement, and doesn't profit when the initial deal is struck, nor later.
Ah, but someone with a huge bet on their death could commit suicide, and so their estate would profit. Or is that against AP rules?
"The rules" are the rules formed in the respective contracts, presumably - how could it be any other way?
Therefore unsuccessful or "gamed" contracts would be the fodder of lessons learnt for future contracts in the competitive market for assassination contracts, which is that which AP presupposes...
Yeah, because that approach worked so well for The DAO. :) -- Pozdrawiam, Michał "rysiek" Woźniak Zmieniam klucz GPG :: http://rys.io/pl/147 GPG Key Transition :: http://rys.io/en/147
