r/Monero is censoring posts like crazy, it is the new r/Bitcoin?
(realbitcoin.cash)
Starting to feel like r/Monero is becoming like r/Bitcoin, mods removing anything related to issues with Monero.
They are disrupting services that use Monero, orphaning miners' blocks and devs are trying to figure out how to stop it, so I would call it an attack.
There are multiple ways an attack can manifest it does not have to be a double spend only to cause problems.
Are they really though? I mean what services are they actually disrupting, Ive made several xmr payments without probkems, in the past few days including during the alleged reorg.
Yeah they are getting lucky and being selfish, but not technically breaking anything
That's a fair point, I think "attack" is giving too much credit, its more like rudely taking advantage of how mining works.
I think a good portion of the attention to this is being paid for by qubit and driven by bots, it doesn't seem to be working and can't really last.
Censorship is never good though.
I can't recall ever seeing an ecommerce website that honors a monero deposit after just 10 confirmations. they all wait for way more before crediting the customer's balance.
