Bitcoin....cash?

>>9629781
This never really sunk in until recently with the bitcoin gold double spend attack.

It currently takes 11.17% of the Bitcoin network hashrate to acquire 50% of the Bitcoin Cash hashrate, allowing a large miner to conduct a double spend on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. There are three bitcoin pools in bitcoin who could do this on their own.

Bitcoin does not have this problem as it holds the majority of the SHA256 hashing power in the world. Bitcoin cash does have this problem, since its in the same race, but 9 laps behind.

That's not fud. It's not propaganda. It's math.

The numbers don't lie.

Bitcoin Network Hashrate: 37681 TH

Bitcoin Cash Network Hashrate: 4209 TH

bitmain would not be able to respond in time to counteract a double spend attack. they can be pulled of within less then an hour for moderate sums. it would be enough to damage the reputation of BCH, in any case if this were to occur.

the fact that this has occurred on other blockchains, and can occur on BCH should be of concern to you at the very least from a neutral perspective.

>Miners love bitcoin cash. I know you're a coretard who doesn't understand economics but please try to get this simple concept.

Well it's actually very simple so I'll lay it out for you. Assume somehow bch gains more value than btc over the long term. So you mine btc and swap it for bch netting you more profit.
>>9630141
The pools themselves would need to coordinate the attacks in order to gain the hashrate required. They would need to mine at a loss for a long period of time to successfully perform the attack meanwhile the difficulty would rapidly be adjusting to make it even more difficult to mine blocks. These types of attacks only ever happen on complete shitcoins with overinflated value relative to mining power.

>> No.9630181

For evidence of this you can look at the S2X fork failure and how the miners didn't want to fork the network and potentially be mining a chain that will die. The time and effort required and with a high risk of loss just isn't worth it over guaranteed returns. Not to mention they would be lowering the value of the very thing they are dependent upon and hold the largest stakes in.

>> No.9630210

>>9630141
It takes resources to 51% attack a sha256 algo blockchain. If a pool wants to double spend on BCH, they have to REALLOCATE THEIR RESOURCES. That means that they are out of the game in regards to the BTC blockchain.

Also, Bitmain has majority hashpower on BOTH chains. On BTC they control over 60% hashpower lmao. They'd control BCH in relation to a spike in hashpower as well. Mining is a competition and the resources you spend will be relative to the resources of your adversaries.

It's like pitting a championship fighter against someone considerably less skilled and expecting them to expend all of their energy when they can facilitate the same outcome with less than ~20% of the energy necessary.

>>9630210
here's the thing though. we both don't know what COULD happen. We only know what's possible. And right now it's possible for one BTC pool to double spend on BCH. There's no way around that.

Furthermore, you don't need 60%, 50%, 40% 30%, or even 30% of the BTC hashrate to switch over to the BCH chain to double spend for a couple of hours.

ALL YOU NEED IS 11.17%

Bitmain may not be able to react in time to this attack. and all that needs to be done, is one double spend to completely damage BCH's reputation.

So to take your championship fighter analogy and correct it for it's simplicitic error.

you have a 2 cage fights happening at the same time. they are both one block away. In each fight there are twenty fighters, for a total of forty fighters across all fights(2).

This fight is on going and never ends because each fighter is equally matched and powerful. In fight one, all twenty fighters are titans standing 7 feet tall. In fight two, all the fighters are midgets.

So both fights are happening at the same time, and the fighters from fight one on team blue hear about the fight across town where there is a good crowd (not as large as theres) attending.

The titan fights naturally wants a bigger crowd, so they send one of their twenty fighters over to the midget fight to fuck destroy ever last one of those bcashcucking retarded manlets.

Which fucking one is it, cunt?

I just explained 10 times. If hashrate enters the BCH network, Bitmain and other majority mining pools will allocate MORE HASHPOWER TO SECURE A STEADY PROFIT. MEANING THAT THE MINING POOL ADDING 11% WOULD BANKRUPT THEMSELVES. The double spend would not result in anything more than, let's say, starbucks losing profit for a cup of coffee. Which will still be astronomically less than the amount they lose on fraudulent charges with debit/credit cards.

THE MINING POOL WOULD BANKRUPT THEMSELVES. 11% ADDED MEANS ALL OTHER MINING POOLS ADD MORE HASHPOWER TO COMPETE ACCORDINGLY.

AND you leave out the fact that a 10% loss of hashrate on BTC would be DEVASTATING to the network, in comparison to the BCH blockchain, which is dynamic and basically fucking invincible at this point.
