Everyone forgot how Supernova conducted an attack 51 on Bitcoin Gold?
Explain how this where done? Why did he do that? And is there an underlying reason for starting the FUD fest in public like he did?

http://cryptoconsulting.info/2017/news/pool-suprnova-six-days-sabotaged-the-work-of-the-bitcoin-network-gold/

As I recall, the Suprnova pool/ocminer simply removed the code which was secretly added at the last minute by one of the devs which implemented a hidden 0.5% fee into his mining pools code, having the proceeds being sent unknowingly to his own personal BTG address. I could be wrong, but the linked information posted at cryptoconsulting.info seems fake and is not quite how I remember things going down..
