If the alphabet agencies bought 95% of all master nodes for a coin, could they spy on transactions from the network? For example, ABC coins offers privacy and all the bells and whistles, an alphabet agency buys %95 of nodes and now, they pretty much are the network
im asking because every new coin that comes out, is a node coin, and the node coins take miner rewards, but isnt a node centralized? A static IP somewhere?
my cellular connection is dynamic; but its bound to a static DNS.... not hard to make something appear and function as if it was static.
nothing is stopping them from controlling the nodes; yes; assuming they salt them across the internet physically.
