faust can edit because he's a mode, and the OP can edit, but we as common foot soldiers can't

When you say "using the electromagnetic field", you mean like, they are distinct from the transistor mechanisms used of computers?

Yes. digital computers don't use global electromagnetic effects. In fact, I believe they're purposefully dampened. The entire idea behind computers is based on the Turing machine principle, where you have a few elementary operations and run more complicated programs by translating them into series of those primitive operations. You can analyze digital computers in terms of local behaviors only

To be clear, I'm saying brains are a bizarre hybrid where some algorithms work just like in digital computers, but others use the brain's electromagnetic field. That's why some computations are conscious and some are unconscious.

When I thought I'd be prepared for it to go down I didn't think it would actually go down this much!

Probably only going to get further down in the near future, too.

I'm going to predict that the lowest it'll go this year is like 300-500€.

I wonder what a universe would have to be like to function like adventure time. You need something like a reality compiler on overdrive, that constantly scans the universe for coherent entities and gives them intelligence and consciousness. Sort of like functionalism! Also, intelligence/consciousness needs to be like a primitive kind of stuff that you kind just put into something

Even now, I'd bet against it going below 500

I'm like 80% sure it'll go below 500. I don't foresee the economy stabilizing for at least a few months, the overall trend will be downwards as long as this continues (probably at a slower rate than it recently has though), and even if it won't stay below 500 for a long time, all it takes is a temporary dip which tend to happen when people panic about the price going down.

We should make another bet with the same stakes as the Elon Musk one.

So 1:1 odds, 20 honor points?

That is fine, but before I agree to it, I want to make sure that I'm understanding correctly and "honor points" are just a bragging right and not a concrete thing.

I will propose the following wording:

Between now and 2023-01-01 00:00:00 UTC+0, the lowest market price for Ethereum, according to Business Insider, will be less than 500.00€. If this condition is met, I win the bet, otherwise, you win the bet.

Sure. But it would not have been funny if I was pretending like it's a real thing and then it turned out to be an actual real thing after I had agreed to it.

I have a thread on Twitter about bets I've made, for accountability purposes. Would it bother you if I posted this there?

So far the thread only has one other bet in it: my $1 against some rando's $100 that, by 2040, at least one country in the world has banned male circumcision. I doubt I'm ever going to get that $100, but whatever.
