A 51% attack occurs when a single entity controls more than 50% of a blockchain's mining or validation power. This allows the attacker to manipulate transactions, double-spend coins, and potentially halt network operations. The attack compromises the network's security, causing a loss of trust in the blockchain's integrity. To prevent a 51% attack, networks can use strategies such as increasing decentralization by encouraging more miners or validators, implementing proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanisms, and adopting hybrid consensus models. Additionally, monitoring network activity for unusual patterns can help detect and mitigate such attacks early.
