Didn't someone already point out that this percentage, which you say is now 20%, is unknown sources, meaning it is almost certainly more than 1 source?  Then it's not like 1 person is controlling all the hash power.

That's the fact that would turn this exciting thread boring. Let's ignore it and get on with our alien theories.

As long as the unknown 43% is not from the same source, it is ok for me.
This.

What would the benefits of a 51% attack even be except destroying the bitcoin currency?

As long as they are not from the same source it's a good thing.

This thread should have died long ago. This forum is too cluttered with shit for noobs to learn anything. Time to clean out the junk. This forum should be about bitcoin and the bitcoin protocol. Not stankcoin, geekcoin, potcoin, and every other dumb shit scam alt.

There is no benefit. It happens all the time just like other's have pointed out. It could be 100 different reason's none of which is worth me worrying about. As long as its not one source and its been proven its not. It actually BENEFITS bitcoin blockchain not hurts I repeat it BENEFITS. So don't get all excited over nothing.
