51% but thats slower so ideally around 66% so you can make quicker faster changes. but yeah you ll have the same issues with fiat at that point.

66% doesn't give you any more ability than 51% does. It doesn't change the speed, it just increases the cost. There would be no reason to hit 66% to do a 51% attack.

They who domiante block mining will dominate the chain. 66% is just an outright majority relatively. 51% vs 49% can be regained with enough luck.
