RE: Hive: Growth Versus Security

in LeoFinance3 years ago

Very interesting what you say. You are at the inventor's level and you should be on the securities team by the time you think about it.

But in my opinion, growth and security are two sides of a coin that complement each other. As a rung of the growth ladder rises, so will other rungs of the ladder. Growth will always be followed by security developments.

But what you must always watch out for is the security system should not be one step too late. Otherwise, collapse will occur. It's the same as we make stairs, but don't make handrails for those who climb them.

Sort:  

Growth does provide a degree of security. There is benefit in size. It makes things harder in terms of exploit, at least from the money attack level.

But what you must always watch out for is the security system should not be one step too late.

That is true. Never good to shut the barn door after the horse left. Defeats the purpose.

Your analogy is very relevant. Doesn't every system have weaknesses?

We always consider our weaknesses as well as our strengths.

The discourse you convey is a very good warning, at least it will be an early warning system for each of us here to think about it together for the common good.

Certainly there are weaknesses and the goal should be to eliminate as many of them as possible.

We will see how it all unfolds. With size comes a defense but also more attention.

There is a trade off there too.
