imo higher hashrate should be celebrated and not feared so I don't understand the logic here. lets not get too greedy, we have had the chance to mine burst for 19 months now. Most crypto projects would love to see a rise in their hashrate. if the rise in hashrate will lead to negative effects, then it would be better to find out about those issues and hopefully fix them and move on. I don't believe that bitladen meant to harm burst, he is a clever trickster, few ppl got tricked and got out and other stayed on because this coin is bigger than any miner or single entity. let's leave him behind us and if he is back, then let him do what he wants. if burst is strong enough, then it will stand on its feet despite his efforts
before data is analysed, it needs to be collected first. it has only been few days and you are panicking already (or not)

keep it cheerful

Naivete is sometimes beautiful; sometimes dangerous.

No one questions the positivity of a bigger network in general. However, what is discussed here and what you succeed to miss by 100 percent, is the reason for the rapidly growing network and its possible consequences for BURST. Two days ago the network size was tiny, which also means it would be much easier to gain access to more than 51 percent of the network. That could harm BURST. The fact that this is coordinated, could mean nothing - just someone working hard plotting and securing the network. But it could be something completely else. I and Rich just want to know what's going on; knowledge is never bad. Hopefully, H. can contribute with some answers.

Sorry for breaking the promise of not writing.

Very succinctly put.. Yes network growth is one thing but 40+ Miners all initially funded from the same scource with 40-100TB plotted simultaneously joining ninja is worthy of question.

Am slightly surprised than noone else has picked up on this and passed an opinion? I am unfortunately too new to Burst to know if things like this have happened before?
