🚨SlowMist TI Alert🚨
According to SlowMist Threat Intelligence, the Monero (XMR) network is suspected to have experienced a 51% attack.
Based on a post on X (https://x.com/OrangeFren/status/1955129822163669092) and provided blockchain reorganization charts, Monero recently saw a 6-block deep chain reorganization mined by an unknown pool.
No mining pool currently holds over 50% of the hash rate on miningpoolstats, so this may be a stealthy malicious hash power attack—or possibly an accidental mining competition.
⚠️ SlowMist Security Team advises: When transacting with XMR, please wait for as many block confirmations as possible to mitigate risk.
We will continue to closely monitor the network status. Stay tuned.(SlowMist)
