51% Attack

This relates to POW cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin or ethereum ... by controlling more than 50% of the hashing power, anyone can get full control over the blockchain of a particular coin. This could lead to taking over the mining operations, stopping or changing transactions or engage in double spending. The more miners are supporting a coin, the less likely this is to happen. Coins with smaller "support" are the most vulnerable.
