Topic: ASIC as a 51% "weapon"... Mmmm... I don't think so... - page 2. (Read 3176 times)
Hi!
First of all, I'm sorry for another thread about ASIC... Please, lock this thread if it is useless...
A lots of people seems to be terrified with the idea of some bad guys (i.e. bank cartels and/or governments (FED)), develop and build a ASIC to take over the Bitcoin network... But, I don't think they will do something like that, never...
Simple, because there is the Litecoin! And the ASIC build for Bitcoin is useless for Litecoin... So, will they build a ASIC for each cryptocurrency out there?! I don't think so... So, they will build none!
Bu, if the Bitcoin Network becomes unsafe, we can move quickly to another CryptoCurrency... Because if that happens, the ASIC guys with 51% of power will not allow a protocol change within Bitcoin itself... So, we can move to Litecoin...
Sounds logical?!
Cheers!
