@hmys does not pay back the loan on time

Levi Finkelstein will have not interacted with Manifold for at least a month at the time HMTS's debt is supposed to be paid back.

Levi forgives the debt in a stunning act of grace

@hmys declares bankruptcy, their assets are liquidated, and @levifinkelstein collects their balance, writing off the difference as an acceptable loss

@jim pays off the debt on @hmys' behalf

Manifold devalue mana 1000000000000x, making it easy for hmys to buy mana with USD to pay the debt

@hmys breaks Manifold rules to farm mana to pay off their debt (not including incidents before this was submitted)

The full debt is completely paid off on time, leaving Levi almost two billion mana richer

AGI renders 2 year concerns meaningless

@hmys has solicited a rather large loan from @levifinkelstein, which you can see here: LINK

Add options! Multiple options can resolve YES

Note that 1.96 billion mana is an estimate made by me. Levi charges interest by the minute, and I didn't count out the minutes precisely. I'll update this market if I see an official figure from Levi. Note also that Levi's conditions clearly state that early repayment does not reduce the size of the debt.

Update 2025-12-17 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): - Silence is not enough to assume debt forgiveness.

@jim Can Jim assume the debt?

If you're @jim then you don't have to pay back the loan.

There is a loophole here.

@Tumbles what happens if levi just doesn't say anything - how do the levi related ones resolve (like debt forgiveness)

@Qoiuoiuoiu I don't think silence is enough to assume debt forgiveness

@hmys attempted to use his alt @HakeemYates to farm 150 mana, but their markets were N/Aed.

What will their next scheme be?

I still haven't figured out the debt cancellation artifact of power. It sounds very vaguely like Joshua's NA/reresolution trick, but I don't see how anything about NAing markets could be relevant here.
