Help Crypto51 to calculate the cost to 51% attack Decred #13

Open xaur opened 5 years ago

xaur commented 5 years ago

crypto51.app maintains an interesting list with cost to attack various pure PoW networks for 1 hour. Obviously Decred is not listed there, same for all PoS coins.

Still it would be interesting have live numbers to see how Decred compares to others. This could contribute to PR since the site sometimes quoted by the media (example)

Site code is open and available here.

This will likely require engaging with site authors and writing some code to estimate cost to attack Decred.

As a generalization of this task, find other similar sites that estimate attack cost and make new issues to list Decred on them.
