Title: Ethereum miner statistics before the merge and after the merge Post by: Cryptornd on September 17, 2022, 06:09:25 AM *Before the merge Mining pool Hash rate Ethermine - 124.4 TH/s F2pool2 - 76.5 TH/s Hiveon pool - 42 TH/s 2miners - 35.8 TH/s Flexpool - 27.6 TH/s *After the merge staking pool staked Eth % lido 31 Coinbase 15 kraken 8.38 Binance 6.64 stake .us 2.98 Title: Re: Ethereum miner statistics before the merge and after the merge Post by: NotATether on September 17, 2022, 09:51:27 AM So all they accomplished with the merge is the transfer of power from miners to exchanges (who are much MORE likely to collude than miners since nobody can stop them from doing a 51% attack. The hell, lido can even do that right now if they wanted to).
Job well done devs. /facepalm Title: Re: Ethereum miner statistics before the merge and after the merge Post by: BlackHatCoiner on September 17, 2022, 10:12:16 AM So all they accomplished with the merge is the transfer of power from miners to exchanges Not only this, but it's now far more likely to have the voting power stolen, and have a 51% attack conducted without the exchanges' permission. Think of this: Someone hacks lido and gets the coins. Simple, common, likely scenario. With 31% of the staked coins, they can first and foremost keep them staked to earn the sweet bucks, and secondly, they can attack with zero cost. But, no problem. Ethereum isn't censorship resistant. The devs will just fork the chain. :) Title: Re: Ethereum miner statistics before the merge and after the merge Post by: FP91G on September 17, 2022, 12:51:43 PM Bitcoin

Its been like this for years however with Bitcoin mining. Every once in a while some pool gains popularity that it needs to increase pool fees to make miners switch to a different pool. In the past they were many times when a pool had >51% hashrate and nothing happened.

A 51% attack on bitcoin POW network involving different individual miners in pools or 51% attack on ETH POS network, whereby centralized exchanges that can easily be forced to bend down and lick Government asses are clearly in control right now?

In most countries Government control would help prevent fly-by-night exchanges. Storing crypto on an exchange has never been safe and still isn't. Worse, Ethereum is an autocracy and has always been one. The rules can be changed at a whim. Once all the coins are locked up the rules can be changed again with no way to bail out for those who disagree.

I hope they can develop a new mechanism in place to prevent exchanges or pools to gain control of the network easily. Considering how often pools or exchanges got hacked, the risk is really not small. Even if they never want to attack the network, someone could "easily" hack them and do it.

Considering how often pools or exchanges got hacked, the risk is really not small. Even if they never want to attack the network, someone could "easily" hack them and do it. I agree, and I wonder how they did not see this coming, especially after seeing what has always happened to all other POS coins. It's just a way of giving powers to whales and centralized custodial services, so long as they can manage to stake lots of ETH.I hope the catastrophe that struck LUNA won't revisit ETH.
