RE: Where is the Trust in Proof of Brain mining?

in #steem-network6 years ago (edited)

You sure about that?

Maybe it was being a child of the cold war and witnessing how the threat of mutual annihilation got us through that October of 1962 which gives me confidence a 51% attack is to nobody's interest.

I see vote bots as just another form of self-voting which I talked about in detail here.

Hammock time well spent! 😎

Not much to disagree with on your video renarks. Small details to be discussed, perhaps, on our road to true Proof of Brain coins.

My feeling is that a CAPCHA scheme of some sort needs to be employed to, at least, give those who choose to use it more power to their upvotes. This is suggested while fully aware that other approaches may exist to deal with counterfeitting. Could there finally be a practical use for karma points? 😃

Sort:  

CAPCHA and blockchains don't really work well together, but it's an interesting idea.

Check the news lately for how many chains have been 51% attacked. And those are just the ones that made the news. It happens all the time, more so than most coin projects are willing to admit.

My funniest shit coin story was when a Buddy of mine kept a network running (BBQ if memory serves) for a while by having two mining machines talking to each other in a room upstairs. He made a shit load the next year when noobs thought them a great buy. 😎

Heh. Way too many shit coins and way too much speculation. Eventually we'll have our dot com bubble moment and figure out which projects are the real deal. As far as EOS is concerned, investors have already spoken.
