This is not a normal industry. 51% attacks are possible. Drivechains allow miners to profit from attacking, whereas attacking #bitcoin is currently very costly.

Drivechains are an old idea and nothing has really changed. I think everyone is just getting impatient. It’s not the answer, sorry.

I guess you better tell bitcoin miners to stop mining Rootstock then.

Rootstock miners run a rootstock full-node. If all miners have to run sidechains full-nodes, costs skyrocket.

If miners use blind merge mining instead of running tons of sidechain full-nodes, then double-spending those chains becomes trivial because no one is fully validating them.

Open your eyes.
