Have you... priced a 66% attack?

# of validators, today: 1,068,000

Ethereum required per validator: 32

Price of Ethereum, right now: $2,368

Price of 66% of ethereum validator network: $53.4B

And note that you gotta get it all at once. Proof-of-stake is kept honest by slashing, whereby disunity is automatically ratted out via penalization and bounty.

We could get further into this? But you have to realize how little incentive I have for doing so when regardless of what I say or how elaborately I explain it, your response is some variation on "it's just a database."
