Add on the ability to wager up to the amount of marks you have plus
100 times
the amount of VCs you have, and force VC->mark conversion.

Pretty much. Converting Marks to VCs is voluntary; converting VCs
to Marks only happens when needed to cover a Mark loss.
pikhq's suggestion would effectively allow lossless VC transfers, by
way of the intended recipient wagering on a statement whose truth value
is already known, though it would only work when the intended recipient
already has at least as many VCs as the amount to be transferred.
This was one of my concerns. It's easy to make a wager on the statement
'1+1=2' here.
If modifying to allow VCs to be wagered (through VC->mark conversion) it
may be worth 'taxing' it. e.g., 1 VC only gets you 80 Marks for use in
wagering. Having said that, I prefer keeping it simple first and changes
such as this can be proposed later.
