I made some money on this attack, im happy

How would you have made money due to the attack?
Easy. Send a tx to yourself, use those inputs for a second transaction to someone else who accepts 0/unconfirmed transactions, then mutate the txid of the first transaction, making the 2nd transaction invalid, allowing you to double spend the 2nd transaction.

You could do a double-spending without this attack Tongue
This attack doesn't help in this...
