Segwit is poison and must be avoided at all costs. Ditch toxic Core and support Bitcoin ABC to recover Satoshis vision and make bitcoin great again. https://www.bitcoinabc.org/

This really sucks big time. I didn't know Segwit could open the door to rogue miner activity and if the Miners do form cartels and the underworld takes over the Bitcoin transactions and become Pirates and start on large theft escapades, Bitcoin will sure open is a more trusted protocol or platform takes over and Bitcoin becomes obsolete.

Is this attack possible and likely? Looking at the number of replies here nobody seems to take it serious. Shouldn't this be a major concern?

Yes it should.

Most experts believe that bitcoin is not in danger. Indirectly, this confirms the growth of bitcoin prices. It seems to me that we see the same situation as before the advent of bitcoin cash. Then the whales provoked the fall of prices and bought bitcoins. Now they are expensive, sell your coins and then the price will fall. And users will not notice any changes.
