An "attack" usually refers to a specific form of attack known as the 51% attack that, if successful, can manipulate the blokchain.
You may be referring to an attempt to manipulate either the market price or some other aspect related to mining diffculty
or mining rewards. There is already an attempt to manipulate the mining difficulty trying to delay the bomb.
well the difficulty delay is doing its thing.
not much so far maybe three day delay.
Thereal danger is not from miners but from the 72 million premined coins 🪙
they are liquid and can crash the value of the 15 million pos coins.
the next danger is 25 million a day liquid income goes poof.
replaced by 3-4 million daily income frozen till at least Jan 2023.
No one knows the effect of pulling over 9 billion yearly income out of crypto and replacing it with 1.5 billion yearly which will be frozen for five months .
so basically heres looking at an amazing event.
or V.B. blinks and delays the bomb for 300,000 more blocks
I wonder whom the real players are here.
Nvidia
AMD
Intel
asic builders
Or Eth developers.
we should know soon.
Good points 👍, I never even think about this, so there is more danger ahead that could make a living hell out of Ethereum, sigh I still don't like how Ethereum is abandoning proof of work, this used to be the best thing that happened to the project.
