this attack dwarfs a 51% attack by several orders of magnitude. Does this attack have a name or wiki-page yet?

Do you really think there is more then 0.000000001% of the hashrate provided by people who mine at loss just to support bitcoin?

Heh, hyperbole/math fail. I don't have to think, I know so. I have 0.00006% of the network running at a loss at the moment, wrong by a factor of 60,000 just for one guy running a few gh? You should be a politician. You're not even close to right if it was only one guy in the world still running a single AM USB miner.

mining doesn't make sense when you don't find blocks. You can mine all you want in that situation without finding blocks once it has gone down too far.
