Why do you keep beating around this debunked myth? It does not cost nothing to produce a block. Wha t the fuck...

Where is the cost?

I think you misunderstand the concept. Sure it is possible to fork a POS cryptocurrency by forging a block on an alternate chain and broadcasting your new chain, but if the chain that you do this on doesn't have over 50% of the stake forging on it, it will lose out to the main branch.

You are welcome to attempt to forge on as many branches as you want at the same time in Proof of Stake, but unless everyone else is mindlessly running their nodes with a multibranch stategy, the attack that you try may cost nothing, but it will not work.

The explanation is just superb!

Thanks Kushti, happy to know I got it correct
