PoS takes over as the dominant mining process, and as coins age at from the point they were mined, someone will always be minting somewhere to generate new network blocks. To 51% attack with PoS you'd need to hold 51% or more of all Mint,

That's a false statement. Proof-of-Stake isn't similar to Proof-of-Work because it's cost-free. Unlike Proof-of-Work, you can retry attack attempts multiple times using the same coins.

You don't need 51% of coins to perform a successful attack. You only need less than 15% of active weight here.


If you have 25% of active weight then you need ~256 attempts;
If you have 15% of active weight then you need ~1975 attempts;
If you have 10% of active weight then you need ~10000 attempts.

Note that active weight has no direct relation with total supply. It's calculated as (volume * timeweight) for coins participating in the network protection. E.g. if there are only 50% of coins @ maximum timeweight used for stake generation,  then you need ~7.5% of total coins volume in order to perform double-spend attack for the reasonable time.

Yes the code has been inspected.

Check the testimonials on the mintcoin.cc website. You'll see a consultant has been brought in by myself.

I had to do that because I feel it's very important that we can steer clear of any nasty mishaps.

I'm happy to say that the initial two inspections on the coding have come back positive (everything looks to be in order)!

However, we are not just leaving it at that.

Precautions are being taken and we are putting the MINT protocol through it's paces in an accelerated testnet to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible and finding any bugs in advance, to stay one step ahead.

MINTcoin is Unstoppable! Diff is too high for basic players to mine it profitable, and big players do not sell their coins that easy! Price will reach 100 sat within days, then higher and higher...
