BTW (hypothetical) What happens if one group runs a good chunk of masternodes, say 51%. Would they have any advantage in breaking darksend anon (like running lots of tor nodes breaks tor anon)?

thx

At the actual rate owning the 51% of the MNs require an investmen of almost 1.5M$.
2250 MNs and DRK value being 3$ it would cost 3.3M$.
You see it gets harder and harder as the network keeps growning.

That is interesting point ... food for though; if you where the feds what would you do:

1. Buy 50%+ MN @ $2 million
2. Try and crack the encryption and spend $100+ millions and countless years if not decades?

It would cost a lot more, price would get pushed far beyond $3 as you're scooping up that many DRK.

Not sure if that many DRK are available to purchase either...
