🫎 on Nostr: Securing server requests by requiring them to be accompanied by a reusable ...
Securing server requests by requiring them to be accompanied by a reusable proof-of-work is effectively saying the only way you can attack my server is with Bitcoin.
Military servers are ddosed on a regular basis by adversaries.
This can be greatly mitigated using the method mentioned above.
In this way militaries will stockpile BTC and view it as a cybersecurity paradigm shift and also a digital ammunition if you wanted to use it to attack an adversaries servers.
The attacking using BTC may prove to simply be too prohibitively costly however which would just cement the cybersecurity aspect of it.
