Anyway, him being Satoshi or not is irrelevant to the fact that he may be the first guy, with his fellow Ayre, to manage take over an important PoW chain. And that alone is worthy of consideration.
POW chain that is owned by Bitman as so many others, one of them is also Monero classic? Let him have it LOL.
The attack he is planning is reproductible on chains not owned by Bitmain (whatever that means).
I am talking of the "to manage take over an important PoW chain." that chain is already taken so if it will be taken by another lunatic why should anyone cares. Rich kids have expensive toys.
if he tries to destroy privacy coins like XMR, good, if he can monero wasn't good tech.
All such announcements of some attacks are always fake. The announcement is an attack itself. He will repeat it for few months then everyone will forget about it.
This is a ICO style. Pre announcement of an announcement.
Now with this new algo, already all exchanges using a low fee or still not?
You cant use Monero now without bulletproof so all exchanges are forced to use lower fees. But some exchanges still charge higher fees. I might be out of loop but speculate Bithumb, HitBTC, Huobi have not change fees yet.
