Abstract generation in progress

[Coin World] According to reports, SlowMist has issued a security alert indicating that the XMR network may have suffered a 51% Computing Power attack. Based on a post on social media and the provided Blockchain reorganization chart, XMR recently encountered a chain reorganization with a depth of 6 blocks conducted by an unknown Mining Pool. Currently, no Mining Pool possesses more than 50% of the Computing Power on data statistical platforms, so this may be a covert malicious Computing Power attack, or it could be an accidental Mining competition. The SlowMist security team recommends: when using XMR for transactions, try to wait for more block confirmations to drop the risk.
