A case where it would make sense, if bitcoin ends up worth nothing. It doesn't matter if they're scarce when they're still worth nothing.
I hope it doesn't end up so, luckily I'm not in a position where I need to try and work it out!
The wager makes perfect sense if you don't think BTC will rise again though...
TLDR; you are gambling.
But that wager makes no sense at all since people accidentally delete there wallets all the time and there's a limited supply of bit-coins.
If you factor in time bit-coin can only go up as long as people are still using it and i have confidence bit-coin will reach wide adoption.
