⚡️🔎 NEW - « A 51% attack on Bitcoin could cost "only" around $10 billion. » That's according to Ethereum researcher Justin Drake, who states in an interview that an attack against Bitcoin would be far less costly than against Ethereum, which would currently cost around $44.8 billion. As a reminder, a 51% attack occurs when a single entity or group controls more than 50% of the mining or staking power of a blockchain network, thereby gaining total control of the network. image

That guy always seems so smug and arrogant when he talks. I find it hard to believe anything he says.
I wonder if he is at all responsible for the direction of Ethereum which is to say that there is no direction or conviction. Not to be taken seriously.
10 billon dollars to get control for10 min , aka 1 block sure maybe.
