Having 51% of the network does not mean they can know your private key.

What are the benefits to base58?

Base45 uses chars like backslash. This is super annoying when the encoded string is used in an url.

You need to visually show when the entered code is loading. So often I click "run code" and then nothing happens I it feels like the code is broken.
Yes and no. If you spend 100BB to buy 51% and then take over the network, eth will have zero value and you loosed 100BB.
Hi, Daniel here. About a year ago, I made this algorithm called EventReduce. It is able to optimize database queries that run multiple times (aka Realtime-Queries or Live-Queries). Before making EventReduce, I scouted over about 2 years if something like this already exists but couldnt find something similar other then MongoDBs OPLOG_DRIVER. After finishing EventReduce last year I added it to my little side project database, RxDB[1] where it is sucessfully in use over the last year. Also I already made a hackernews post [2] with mixed comments about how this can work and when this is usefull. So now I am here again with the goal to get some feedback of people who try out EventReduce on top of their database.
