I'm curious, can blockchain technology actually prevent scams or fraud in cryptocurrencies? And what factors determine how resilient these systems are? Everyone always brings up the '51% attack'—is it really that easy to pull off? Do you think these security concerns are overblown, or is it something we should take seriously, bro?
How do cryptocurrencies stay secure?

I see that blockchain makes cheating harder, especially thanks to its distributed nature. As for a 51% attack, I think it’s overstated because it requires huge budgets and is rare—I've come across such cases in forums, for example, one happened on Ethereum Classic last year. Its resilience is determined by the number of miners and the node distribution, so diversity is important.
