Is this happening? Bitmain involved ?, Miners please check if there is really a 51% attack, thank you.

Why would a well known entity like Bitmain launch such an attack? I doubt it.

That post is from a couple days ago. There were a few Cryptonight coins under attack. For example my baby TurtleCoin was attacked. Someone purchased a huge amount of hashing power from nicehash and pointed it at a couple CN coins. I don't know how Electroneum responded but the TurtleCoin devs were all over it.

I think yes, bitmain already boom cryptonight coin with HUGE hashrate from they ASIC, so, i hope Electroneum Dev change PoW to v7 ( like SUMO,XMR ) to prevent ASIC Algorithm
