Today's Dash Detailed is excellent. A must-see!

(How can we embed YouTube videos here?)

Does anyone have that overview of the Sybil Attack costs per masternodes controlled % that Amanda is using in her YouTube
video ?

Thanks

try this...





Probabilities in %
Formula: ((Attacker_Nodes / All_Nodes)^PrivateSend_Rounds) * 100

Good luck, anyone attempting an attack.

oh excellent, thank you sir!

the btc maximalist guy ("I'm very against supporting altcoins") that blocked cat and john from attending the vegas btc meetup said "masternodes are vulnerable to sybil attacks, especially since it was instamined."

but even if one person mined/owned 2,000,000 coins there would only be a 0.35% chance of deanonymizing a privatesend transaction. so that's over $26 million (at current prices) they would have to put up/risk losing just to sybil/snoop on less than half a percent of all transactions.



or this...




Why not put this "feature" in the OP, as other ostensibly privacy-driven coins showcase their privacy tech?


because it's not that important as far as realistic attack vectors go. most critics/trolls looked at the info long ago and realized the math and tech was solid and moved on to looking for other things to complain about.

also, unlike other one trick pony coins dash has many main features not just one. Tongue
i'll look for it again although i know it won't shut you up. we do appreciate the all bumps though! Grin

i finally found some of those charts. i still did not find the latest one i was looking for with higher node counts but here's what i found so far. these are out dated as we have way more nodes now but maybe someone can do the updated math.

that chart is from the DASH white paper here...

i found some more probability charts i will post later once i finish reading through all of them.

i found a few more charts if you need them but these should be enough.
