It's not necessarily about an early warning. I'm not saying it's impossible, but just showing you ways it would most likely be detected/suspected. It's price action on the market would be one.

I just think you have too much faith in people keeping secrets especially of this magnitude, either escalating the abuse (thus the obviousness) or reaching the community from users reporting it (thru the grapevine or discovering it by themselves). We already have precedent of this in Bitcoin of lone anon users warning devs of inflation bugs that no one else was aware of.

Good news is you don't have to agree with me though.

I already showed you how to sidestep all of that worry.

Use Monero like a checkings account/spending cash (strong privacy,fungible,cheap) and Bitcoin as your savings account.

word of mouth works a lot better when 100 million people can verify and analyze something rather than 10 people.

the corruption would most likely take the form of minor price movements you wouldn't think anything about. you don't know why monero is trading as low as it is currently, perhaps it's already being cheated.

best of luck

But in practice 100 million people dont verify...

20,000-50,000 run node at all

and only a small fraction of that fraction are actually paying attention to the constant stream of inputs/outputs and arent just simply "running a node in the background"

Best of luck to you too
