Hal Finney and md-PMs

[psztorc]

Hal Finney is apparently a big name in the Bitcoin world. I first learned of him at Robin Hanson's blog, in 2008.

Here's a post where he endorses conditional (what I call 'multidimensional') prediction markets.

Although InTrade has been defeated, hopefully our work here will have a chance of reviving this important idea.

There are so many people who *seem* to be aware of everything that happens in the space. Clearly most of those people know nothing about Truthcoin or Conditional Prediction Markets.

How to resolve the contradiction?
