>Why does everyone repeat that Byzantine consensus requires maximum 33% of participants to be dishonest?

Not 33% of participants, 33% of the hash power, could just be one participant with a pile of GPUs or ASICS or "JINN" chips lol. That's the claim made by the IOTA author, anyway.

Right now it wouldn't surprise me if someone could amass 90+% of IOTA hash power anyway.

>If messages cannot be forged

Tbh this is not even a given with IOTA.
