This appears to be about the right figure vis a vis the price of a large-scale hash attack on monero.

however.

It would take a year or two to find the CPUs (~60k) and everybody would know in a month that an attack was coming. Everybody already knows Monero will fork to protect itself.

But yeah, a determined attacker with 2 years and $200 million to burn could do a lot of reputational damage unless the community just forked out from under them of course. nostr:nevent1qqsdhhmn65m484c39j4f6svq9fdvdlpeycqh32sa28ltknnrk40gg7qprfmhxue69uhhw6r9v96zu6rpwpc8jarpwejhym3wvdhsygqk7xspqr2vllaucs3sarswg2gvckzfcxkuvntx2076qlqrrvg8fv82rmpp
