One of the major security issues affecting permissionless proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchains is long-range attacks (LRA), also called posterior corruption attacks. An attack based on the inability of a user who disconnects from the system at time t1 and reconnects at a later time to tell that validators who were legitimate at time t1 and left the system (for example, by transferring their stake to another validator or by assuming a different identity) are no longer trustworthy.
It is amazing how clueless PoW supporters are.
If I create a segmented network PoS or PoW with a greater block height, and isolate your node when you try and reconnect ,
PoS or PoW your node will follow the wrong chain, no matter what.
The absolutely simple solution for PoS or PoW, is whenever you re-sync a chain after a long time on your node,
is to verify the block height on a running block explorer.
1. Don't be a dumbass and let your IP address get isolated.
2. Always Verify the Blockheight 1st after syncing, if you have been offline for months.
You should do that anyway. @pooya87
So what are your plans after the US & Europe ban PoW mining?
