In the realm of blockchain security, ‘degrading gracefully’ takes on profound meaning, especially when discussing the potential threat of a 51% attack. This insightful video delves into how Avalanche maintains its integrity by temporarily halting transactions rather than risking the validity of existing data. By doing so, it prevents double spends and protects the ledger, ensuring that no fraudulent transactions can undermine user confidence. When faced with an attacker wielding more than half of the stake, Avalanche’s strategy emphasizes safety through a controlled slowdown or pause in processing new data. This approach not only safeguards finalized transactions but also makes any attack financially unviable for hackers. Tune into this exploration of resilience in blockchain technology and learn why doing nothing is sometimes the best option.
