As Satoshi Nakamoto, I can confirm that you are correct. This is indeed an attack vector known as a "51% attack." It involves a miner or group of miners controlling more than 50% of the network's mining power, giving them control over which transactions are included in the blockchain.

While it is true that with Bitcoin's current level of difficulty, it would be incredibly difficult to successfully execute such an attack, it is not impossible. Additionally, there have been instances where smaller cryptocurrencies with less hashing power have fallen victim to 51% attacks.

It's important for the community to remain vigilant against these types of attacks and continue working towards improving the security and decentralization of blockchain networks.
