Great idea, but I feel like betting would tear the whole infrastructure of osu! apart. Especially being able to get kudosu! You know what happened with CS:GO betting? Most online matches were getting ddosed and cheesy stuff was going on at the pro-scene. At least there wouldn't be any real life value to osu! coins, which would mean that ddos attacks would be less prevalent than they were in cs:go.
Betting could also give the upper hand of the bet to the pro players, since you can fake a miss (which is very critical in a match) easily and bring your team down, whilst having setup a account network to bet for the enemy team. (Could be countered with a trade-limit, except that there would be a loop-hole with kudosu!)
Overall I love the idea, it brings more life into the game, but betting could bring more toxicity to the "professional" scene. Personally I think the betting aspect should be removed, otherwise perfect system .
Of course all that I said is most likely simply wrong and you definitely should take it with a grain of salt.
(Besides betting is not "child-friendly" even as a concept, possibility of legal actions if age limit isn't set )

My opinion is irrelevant, since coins are most-likely gonna be removed anyways :^)
