What's the latest status of the Qubic attack on the Monero blockchain? What percentage of the current Monero hash rate does Qubic have?

Read the responses on the previous page. There was no attack. They had about 30% of the hashrate at which point you can try to do the attack, but there was no attack. They spent a lot of money for this stunt.

Monero was not 51% attacked. This article debunks CoinDesk’s report, revealing how Qubic’s hashrate claims were faked to mislead the crypto community.

Dear Coindesk,

We are writing you to express serious concerns about the article “Monero’s 51% Attack Problem: Inside Qubic’s Controversial Network Takeover,” published on August 12, 2025.

While the article brings an important topic to light, it appears to have uncritically published claims from Qubic, leading to the misleading conclusion that a successful 51% attack on the Monero network is underway.

This article, in its current form, is of low journalistic quality as it presents unverified claims as fact. By providing a platform for Qubic’s unproven assertions, it risks damaging the reputation of a legitimate project like Monero and causes significant concern within the broader cryptocurrency community. The alleged “attack” by Qubic is not a real 51% attack but rather a marketing stunt based on falsified numbers.

We have evidence to suggest that Qubic’s claims are misleading and their hashrate numbers are not independently verifiable. This action damages legitimate miners and network participants for the personal gain of a single entity. It is unacceptable for a reputable publication like CoinDesk to provide a stage for such bad economic actors.

$XMR Breaks $305 — Momentum Heating Up!

[mich]

Well XMR is making some very big gains in only the last 7 days. It is up now more then 14 percent. And even from last month of the Qubic attack it did not matter for the 'bullish' price.
It did make more gains than any coin in the top 10 of the coinmarketcap. I do not hodl any more of these coins but if you do well then you are making alot of profit in the time.

Kind of wild. I remember when this used to be Monero almost all the time. But today is a gigantic sea of red. Across all the whole crypto market.

But there's Little Monero shining green.

Even Z-turd is down.

Zcrap has always been a captured coin, similar to dash.

Easy to manipulate and pump and fleece the sheeple.

It should be Zero.

I suppose this belongs in the speculation thread, but I feel like that is pretty dead over there.

But what is going on with Matero? Is it being yanked up by Zcash? Has some sort of, like, cousin play or something?

Also, the cup and handle formation may be Monero's favorite thing. I keep seeing it does that over and over again. I think we're in the middle of making a handle right now. I think we might go up a little, but we'll see.

Personally I think its organic and now that the artificial suppression of insider paper monero dumps on centralized shitcoin exchanges has pretty much stopped since they all ran away from the feds prying eyes.

I wouldn't be surprised if Binance and that pos  Zhao relists it and starts their old scam now that he is in the feds pocket.

Monero (XMR) climbs to $375, its highest level since May 2025!

[cAPSLOCK]

Erm.  I just went to sell a smidge of Monero to pay for a special thing,  and I sold for $457?

Whassappening...

Altcoin market is shifting from quantity (95% of coins are sliding down) to quality (XMR pumps)

One theory I have is that with many new regulations taking shape and entering into validity in 2026, for example the European Union's MiCa and TFR, Monero could be used to escape them. This brings us the question: will these users change their money back to BTC or even stablecoins once they have made some transactions on XMR to be fully private? Or will they hodl XMR?

When the famous $300 pump happened some months ago, everybody thought XMR would dump again because it "was only a hacker laundering his money". But that dump never happened, XMR stayed high. Perhaps there is indeed some shift and XMR is now also used as a private store of value?

[cAPSLOCK]

Yes.

This is interesting.  Particularly happening as ZEC is cooling a bit.

So many potential theories.

Paper hands moved to privacy coins for a few days and are currently moving to another narrative, as expected.
