But killing zombies is a lot of fun.

so is this Smiley

c'mon, APEX's price hasn't moved, and they didn't even have checkpointing servers (not that it would have helped, but It shows they didn't care or they were not prepared to run a coin).
I like to think I'm not destroying work, I'm building a more secure future. For our kids! would anybody think about the children !?

Hey cynicSOB,
what do you think about that: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=897493.msg10208018#msg10208018

Would it lower your success?

Cheers,

I think it wouldn't work: how can you tell an attack from normal use? if you have 2 chains that look similar but have one conflicting tx you have to choose one, there's just no way to avoid that. How do you define which is the "good" one? an attack may not even change the difficulty
