🚨 Coin Metrics analysts calculated the cost of potential attackers carrying out a 51% attack on the Bitcoin and Ethereum networks.
🔸 In case of an attack on the Bitcoin network, attackers will need to obtain the hashrate provided by 7 million ASICs. Purchasing this amount of equipment will cost them $20 billion. Moreover, as of today, there are not that many devices on the market.
🔸An attack on Ethereum will cost $ 34 billion, attackers will have to manage 200 nodes simultaneously, which will greatly complicate the coordination of actions.
