On the sustainability of bitcoin partitioning attacks

A series of recent studies have shown that permissionless blockchain peer-to-peer networks
can be partitioned at low cost (eg, only a few thousand bots are needed), stealthily (eg, no
control plane detection is available), or at scale (eg, the entire bitcoin network can be
divided into two). In this paper, we focus on the sustainability of partitioning attacks in
Bitcoin, which is barely discussed in the literature. Existing studies investigate new
partitioning attack strategies extensively but not how long the partition they create lasts. Our …
