    Thanks, that is really helpful. Yeah, I had heard something about only 10k nodes are ‘fully functional,’ out of 100k. But I don’t understand this so I went with 100k to be conservative WRT the resources for a 51% attack. And I emphasize that its not the attack so much as people losing faith in the network.

    So what is your conclusion? Could it be easily accomplished by a state actor, like Russia?
