Some weird and wonderful historical forum threads - Take a look

[Mbitr]

I’m a big fan of the forum and a big fan of history , so during this lockdown I thought I’d combine the two  
There are some highly important, top quality and extremely informative historical threads that every newcomer to the forum should read . These threads are not those !
These threads are some of the more off beat , weird and wonderful yet interesting posts, that appeared a long time ago , in a galaxy, far , far away...

From the last thread you posted, i found something more wired than the attack by itself and is The anonymous user who posted there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=431.msg42799#msg42799

I didn't know the forum had that feature in the past.

I like what I read here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2655.20 ("His point was that this would devalue the Bitcoin overnight as everyone moved to the new currency.")
I think this is abit similar to the argument that having multiple cryptocoins will kind of cause inflation or something... more like how they said that lack of central bank and presence of multiple" non-central banks" many decades ago in US (I think) caused inflation.

Think you quoted wrong thread , but valid point for the 51% attack thread
