I noticed the Monero price drop and lose 5 months of value and found this news item.
This sounds bad for Monero, will it recover? Do you trust it less?

Pretty much a PR stunt they never had more than 35% and lied to draw miners to their pool. Overblown, but still worrisome that so much was published without question. They are definitely dangerous to XMR but nowhere near a takeover.

Best thing you can do is fire up a miner on p2pool, Monero was always about decentralization and personal control. Use gupax if it seems complicated.

My opinion: this is all to pump qubic token and do a rug pull. They don't care if they scare the market away from XMR in the process as long as they drive away in lambos.

I am mining and buying the dip.

Long term this is incredible buying opportunity. XMR keeps getting more scrutiny from govt, etc.

It works well.
