I have a doubt with Proof of Stake. As I have watched some tutorial videos and websites, there is information that: with Proof of Stake, in order to make a double spending attack, a node has to own at least 51% stake of all the network.
Because with pure Proof of Stake, only a single miner can append a block at the same time. So what I wonder here is: with Proof of Stake, how can fork happen to make the double spending attack?
Thanks in advance :-)
Thank you for your answer, but could you explain for me that without connecting to the internet, how can I know how much is owned by all the network?
For example, with nxtcoin, you have to know all the coins owned by the network, so you can choose the next miner by picking a random coin among all the coins. – Truong Nguyen – 2017-11-16T17:02:28.697
Mining blocks in PoS is not "picking (voting for?) a random coin and its respective owner". Sorry, I can not explain PoS here in few words in good English. – amaclin – 2017-11-16T18:55:31.037
