Accomplish the mission.
Otherwise you're just waving your arms, spreading FUD, and really just forcing the people trying to correct your FUD to spend the time inventing hypothetical attacks which you might mean but haven't even invested enough time or thought into to come up on your own. Admittedly this IS exactly what I'm doing. Its in the OP. I"m asking for some brainstorming to take down bitcoin. Thats the point.
1) Construct an attack that greatly reduces the hash rate. I suggested DDoS all the miners simultaneously.
2) Use opportunity to make changes to the block chain (2x spend, whatever)
3)
?4) Profit
You see, i am talking about a malicious attacker. One who wants to destroy Bitcoin and has a budget.
As per FUD, ENOUGH accusing every one of doing something wrong when they question the system. Its becoming standard practice on message board to declare a post a FUD post as soon as the poster touches a nerve. No one has answered what happens if this attack were launched yet, we need to think about all this and thats the point of my post. Stop with the black helicopter stuff, i'm not some double agent. I'm just doing my due diligence before i commit more of MY money to BTC. Why is that so hard to get?
What about another attack vector, such as leaning on Gox. What if they got raided, had their domain seized and their accounts frozen. What then? We go back to OTC? Doesn't sound like a good thing.
