Thanks for this, I missed it in the main thread. I will take some time later and fully digest it as a few questions come to mind, specifically things like when an owner of a botnet sets it to only mine the spammed blocks (and has a large enough stash that they do not need to purchase coins) and blockspamming of small blocks when the variable cost kicks in (not sure when this is happening at all). Anyway when I'm up to it I'll try to fully digest this. I'm going to have to change the simplicity's sake to readabilities sake first.

I hate my lack of short term memory, it makes it tough to work with assigned variables.

On thing to keep in mind here is that when the cost of the spam attack becomes comparable to that of a 51% attack then of course the spam attack can become possible.

Thx, yup. I ninja'd a question but you answered before I saved lol.

Does "The Maximum allowed blocksize, BlkSize, is 2MN" mean there is a penalty cap? Therefore as time progresses and blocksize naturally increases this will become cheaper?
