Such confidence in Bitcoin is splendid, but a 94,500 BTC tx tempts fate. If recipient can make that much from reversing the tx, they can afford to run a 51% attack for more than 40 days. Big if & very visible, but security here depends more on trust & less on the protocol itself.https://twitter.com/whale_alert/status/1169815776733220866 …

If this is a tx internal to an organization, while that doesn't make it risk free (indeed just trusting employees with custody can be risky), their key management & other internal controls, not raw difficulty of reversing BTC tx, is their main protection for such a large amount.

If this leads to more volatility down the road isn't that great? More currency exchanging hands and wealth being created.

Aren't the estimates in
@eiaine calculations based on hiring nicehash? The sourced website is clear about not being able to provide even 1% of the theoretical hash power needed to conduct the attack. Or did you mean the alternative, i.e. new hardware + selfish mining for 40 days?Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
