D -- Decentralization 

lolz, the butthurt

If everyone dumps their Moneros and price goes to $10 then many will stop mine and difficulty will go down. Easy peasy. We can do it!!!



what makes you think that botnets are mining it?

Why are you getting defensive instead of explaining this concept? Did I specifically say that "botnets are mining it"? Somebody else brought it up; don't shoot the messenger. I'm merely trying to understand how botnets help to decentralize the network since this subject is often brought up on here? If you can't explain it, why respond to my query in the first place?

To the extent botnets are being used to mine Monero they are not so much decentralizing as they are securing the network.  It could be assumed that very powerful botnets could be used to CENTRALIZE the network.  But this is likely only theoretical since as we grow it will become prohibitively expensive to aim that much power at the Monero blockchain.

Botnet's do not cause the Monero blockchain to be decentralized.  The fact the Monero blockchain is truly decentralized causes botnets.

But botnets secure the blockchain by employing a large number of individual CPUs to mine which makes attacking the blockchain harder just the same as the miners of bitcoin do.

I personally see botnet involvement in a similar light to dark web markets.  In fact I see them as a little more negative as they are abusive by nature.  And since I am not an anarchist or someone with Asperger's syndrome I have a hard time accepting them as a net positive for Monero.  I think they are not. 

But we cannot be a truly decentralized, fungible, unregulated monetary system without them.  They are a side effect of our success.

Wild west gonna wild west.

Again, it's confirmed that these is new botnet

what's OCN?

Overclock.net.  Huge, old PC performance enthusiast community.

They banned discussion of Bitcoin for years, until they had to concede defeat by Honey Badger.

But now they love getting paid XMR to benchmark their 1337 rigz!
