Currently the Monero network consists of the hash rate equivalent of very roughly 100K modern desktop computers (64-bit, AES-NI, 8 MB cache) or mid range mining rig GPUs (750 Ti, etc.). For a botnet to 51% attack...
Do you know how many of those 100K are already botnets?
I can't believe people are saying monero is flawed because some botnets are mining it, if anything it means monero is growing and is becoming more profitable.
Do you not agree that non-level playing field for distribution and concentrating coins more than would be normally is a flaw?
Especially when most of the coins that will ever be mined are occurring very early in the mining life, even more so than for Bitcoin. This is potential death to the future of the coin for transactions. We discussed this in depth already in the Monero thread.
