Re: This is laughable!

Western governments could not subvert the block chain with a 51% attack without appropriating the $1.5B in hash power through the legislatures, something that would never happen. Russia could not afford to $1.5B for a one off act of vandalism that would result in nothing. China also. The network would fork around the vandal hardware and the miscreants would have created nothing.
