Quote
In case of an attack against the network, the Proof Of Mining system will automatically detect the takeover attempt, driving the necessary hashpower to the block generation node, for all the time needed to null the attack.

This is a completely flawed concept.

Let's say your PoM network has a total of 10ghash/s. In order for PoM to be making money though, they are only dedicating 1ghash/s to the midas network. And let's say an attacker has 2 ghash/s, so they have better than a 50% attack, they have a 100% attack and can make themselves the legitimate chain at will.

The attacker sends money to an exchange at block 1000 and cashes out to bitcoin/fiat. The attacker then uses his 2ghash/s to mint a blockchain twice as powerful as the legitimate 1ghash/s chain. He mines until block 2000, privately. He does not give any way for his double spending fork to be discovered. His chain is twice as powerful as the legit chain. So, now he broadcasts it. IT gets relatively instantly accepted as the legit chain. If the PoM pool kicked in and started using all 10ghash/s to bring the network back to legit status, it would not instantly flip back to legit status. It would take a series of hours or even days of mining to overcome the other chain. (about 10 times less time than the attacker took. So, if the attacker 2ghash/s mined blocks for 10 days, the legit chain with 10ghash/s would take 2 days to become more powerful). During this day, they could have their double spent coins go to another transaction and spend things again. Also, anyone else could do the same. Send coins to an exchange, cash out, then wait for the legit fork to undo that transaction.

The entire idea is one of the most terrible and ill thought out things I've heard in quite some time. I understand the intentions, but it's not possible. At all. It actually makes double spending significantly easier.

STILL MISSING MY 12 BTC FROM SCAMOOLAHPAL! >:O
MidasCoin should be a PURE pos COIN.POW is not a good choice , I means 51% attack .

If I'm not mistaken and assuming they can do what they claim, I believe this was addressed in the OP.  Sounds like this coin, again if they can do what they say, will be much protected from such attacks as other coins.

Looks really interesting tbh. Will follow the topic closely.

My new mission.......to try and beat you in being first to post lol:-)
I've become slow lately ;p Not paying much attention on coin launches anymore.
Most of coins are waste of time / scams.

This one got my attention.

Yeah me too and I have noticed that about you.  You've actually become a good indicator for me:-)
