proof of stake allows anyone with enough borrowed coins to short the coin while attacking the network with their stake
>but you have to buy 51% of the supply!
Not really. All you have to do is rope a bunch of retards into a HYIP (looking at you Celsius), sell enough to lock in profits, then launch your attack
>but we can fork their coins away!

PoS just encourages scammers, which will call in the regulators we were trying to flee from in the first place
