Bitcoin Gold (BTG) was 51% attacked again

Any statement on how this was possible.
My understanding was Bitcoin Gold was GPU mining ONLY.

Only a ASIC attack vector from ZEC camp miners can explain a 51% at this economic level.

You should read this news before

Yes, it uses zhash but the problem is if this entity is anonymous who can get 51% hashrate just in short time.
