Nevermind, found it. ;)

News today: Bitcoin is more vulnerable to attack than expected: NASA organised conference - phys.org/news/2018-04-bitcoin-vulnerable.html

tldr; Andresen attack only requires 20% of mining power.

And, the reddit thread on this from one year ago - don't know enough about it to know if anything has changed: reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/5zh1xk/…

I presume the reddit is related - I cannot actually find much of substance to discriminate.

hey @Murch - how's things?

Good morning

Not too bad. Bitcoin being a bit quiet for a few weeks was very refreshing. ;)

good morning! I haven't moved the above SmokeDetector message since the answer still exists on main

yes, it's allowed a bit of breathing room.

nice to see the price stabilising again.

not that I'm fixated on price, but as a miner it's worrying when it freefalls like it did

oh wow.

@Willtech that's an interesting article

And how are things for you?

pretty good overall. I bought a Cryptosteel for storing private keys - cool product even if it is really hard to use for an old guy like me.

It's nice knowing your keys will survive a fire

or a flood

That's neat. Alright, off to work. ;)

@MaxVernon I couldn't find many details on how an Andersen attack would work.
