We have seen a 51% double spending attack on Bitcoin Gold just a few days ago. Can we stop claiming that blockchains prevent that?

- paulsutter 8y agoThe attacks on the smaller blockchains are good news. Blockchains have the biggest bug bounties in history, and in time we'll all learn what works. I've never heard anyone claim blockchains are immune to double spending. There's evolutionary value behind all the experiments. And they're all experiments, including Bitcoin.
