I don't open-source it yet. It works very unreliably with texts written by non-native speakers, because they tend to copy phrases of other people (it's caused by learning of new words).

I'm not an english native speaker, so if I get high correlation with one I'll take it as a compliment...

So how about you hit BitcoinDark? Low market cap, center of SuperNet, can't think of a juicier target then that!
I'll take a look, but a market cap of 1M USD is not that low... at least for my budget


In order to check if your attack approach works with nxt, wouldn't it work only with the effective balance? It's what is important to forge, in this this case, you wouldn't need any budget, sure some whales can lease their balances to you and even raise some bounties if you document the attack Smiley
yes, I can also try with a smaller nxt clone


I don't think being fully decentralized truly matters, having a centralized checkpointer can often be better since there are many people that work in a decentralized fashion but could be trusted enough to manage the checkpointing. IMO a centralized checkpointer is better than a decentralized currency with an open attack vector.
no way. I prefer old-fashioned POW over anything POS with a centralized checkpoint.
