Hi, first of all I got a simple question.
Im running bitcoincore on a centos server with 1gb ram, which is downloading the blockchain in prune mode really slow (now it's at 338k and downloads 10 blocks a minute....),
can I download the blockchain on my computer and import it to the core even if it's in prune mode?

(download 600mb in prune mode and upload to the server)



Second question:

I see that forks are made if 51% of nodes give the consensus, but if you make 1kk (1'000'000) virtual machines with bitcoin core, and those are the 51% You could actually submit a bip and get it verified instantly leading the possibility to adopt a new change that could affect and steal everyone's bitcoins or make an actual change that everyone pays a default fee to the attacker's address?
