So Dash is a vulnerable to 51% attack? You said that only 3 wallets control half of the funds...That is insane!. Thanks for pointing it out!!

3 wallets control over half of the "hash power" meaning that this entity could technically carry out a 51% attack. That said, the new update is trying to tackle this issue - I'm just unclear how.

ahhhhh...Thanks for the clarification, not the funds but the hash power. Cheers Ben
