Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cost of buying 51% of BTC (for attack if bitcoin were to go PoS)
|
on: February 28, 2015, 07:21:03 AM

If Bitcoin were to go the Proof of Stake option (using sidechains perhaps), one of the problem people have with the idea is that it will become much less secure because it would be very cheap to perform a 51% attack.
Some PoS coins boast that you need more than 51% of the coin to control/destroy the normal functioning of the network, but we'll just focus on 51% now.
How much would it cost to buy 51% of BTC (not including lost/unused/unallocated)
Please comment below.
The reason it is 51% of "owned" coins is that in PoS only actively owned/used coins count, so lost/unused coins don't count... at present, i think there are about 10-12million BTC that are "used"... so the question is, how much to buy about 6million btc...although this figure may change if the purchase happens slowly, over a year or two. The cost estimate still stays valid/interesting
51% attack means To own the 51% of hashing power over all not 51% of btc 51% hashing power its very large bitcoin network is very large so need so manny bitcoins this will rise bitcoins price if you bought

Looks like thats what most of the people have been waiting for, to withdraw their NXT. It hasn't happened yet. The right time for bter to scam on us, after having paid out their USD and CNY denominated liabilities to escape legal prosecution in China. Remember, they didn't start nxt withdrawals as promised. Give them another "couple" of days, maybe they will reopen the next/altcoin withdrawal, but your "thought" it is valid and maybe you are right. may be they will Freeze all altcoins

Mark once announced something regarding Bitcoins to be the future of money, still don't know why this multi-billionaire guy haven't yet invested in this so-crypto currency...
may be he has invested small amount and did not tell any thing may be they are in beta phase Why would someone try to be that anonymous? Even Winklevoss twins have invested some of their big stakes in BTC, but they didn't hide anything and made everything public... may be still in testing phase yeah...but anyways if they r investing in something..that doesnt mean that they have to scream about it everywhere.. It is perfectly fine if he has invested already n not told anyone about it as of yet. Some publicity could only help BTC though! if they do some publicity may be big flacuate in bitcoins we will see when this will happen

I hope not. I found the endless 666ness very tiresome.
better 666 than 250 is it not? anyway, 666 just confirms that the rules of this materialistic realm apply, in whatever context the number 666 appears. if it appears in the context of money then it is as normal as the sun rising every morning. 666 is the carbon code (6 electrons, 6 protons and 6 neutrons). in this realm, we have material bodies that have the respective needs and we are having a materialistic experience. everything's normal i know in the numerology 666 is the lucky number but hope soon bitcoin price will above 666$

Economy / Speculation / Re: When will BTC again reach 400$+
|

I got some BTC and want to sell them. The prices have gone down too much in past few months. Can anyone tell that when do we expect the prices to again reach 400$+ Also do we expect the prices to go even down? If yes, Shall I buy more BTC? I seriously think its not the correct time to sell the BTC, what you think? Nobody knows for sure. The best prediction of the price in a month that you can easily get is the current price. but market analyses can get the some near about peridict the bitcoin price
