Do we really want to avoid "all" attacks? I think at the moment only one attack was perhaps bad for ETH and that was the DAO one. For now the last attacks are only exposing exploits, no major damage like the DAO hacker cause. Then again, i might be guilty of always being to positive ;)

Reflecting on ethereum attacks: why should someone attack a blockchain
You don't want to avoid attacks, you want to be resilient and "survive with the least scratches". This is specially important for a system worth so much money. Think about it, if such an attack were possible on Steemit, all our interactions would be cut off for the duration of the attack. That would be bad, very bad.
