Aliens take over the Earth. Not because they are stronger, actually, it is just one rusty spaceship. But their navigation computer is way faster than anything on Earth, so - yes, yes - they do mining and collect enough wealth to rule the planet.

It's more realistic that they destroy the earths financal system once it's based on Bitcoins.
They plug in their computer and the difficulty gets ridiculously high, then they do a 51%99,9%attack or just plug it off and Bitcoin is dead xD

True, but keep in mind that they are ALIENS, not government Smiley
They want to concur, not to destroy Smiley

I guess they could gather a lot of wealth with mining, but not enough to rule the world. Half of the Bitcoins are already in human hands(, are they? *g*).
Would be a good starting point though.

If they just have one rusty spaceship, I'd just blow them the f88k away.

Great idea though. Problem is you could replace "alien" with "any very big government" and have the same effect. Hard to blow governments the f88k away as well.

You can not blow them - Bitcoins are ANONYMOUS! Smiley
OOPS! Maybe that's who Satoshi is...

We'd switch to CAPTCHA-based mining that only humans are good at Grin

Who are they agreeing with?

Or do you mean they want to conquer?
