You don't need 51% of the Network Hashrate to perform a block reorganization. You only need 35% and to wait for few hours until you get lucky enough to screenshot a 51/100 inside some 1,000 block window. Nevertheless you don't have a sufficient amount of confirmations inside the "luck" window to perform a double-spend. Very deceiving to market a block reorg as a successful 51% attack.

Honestly one of the best series I’ve seen in recent years. The finale was beautiful, just bitter-sweet in the best way. What a lovely, fun voyage!

If you've ever wondered about some of the attacks against Monero that seem to be sophisticated (although often painted to be amateur & at arms length), likely state-sponsored, you just need to look at this quote from the CEO of the ECC. h/t @DrunkDialMe_ & @VictorMoneroXMR

Super disappointed in GPT-5. Poor prompt adherence, I have to bully it into giving me what I asked for. It performed terribly on a simple image recognition task (extracting song names from screenshots) - it gave me 32 out of the 39 songs on the list. Claude Opus 4.1 nailed it first time.

Imagine watching Star Wars in French or Italian and not laughing at a species literally called "my octopus"

We recently discovered a large Monero donation was received in the short time after we updated our article's reported income but before it was posted. We've now updated it to reflect this. We'll post an update soon on what this means for the project. Thank you for your support!
