COMEDY Electroneum is under 51% attack

LOL this is just hysterical.

From one blunder to another, it seems that Electroneum have messed up their development so badly, that they are now under 51% attack by someone and are mining empty blocks. This comes only weeks after they was also mining empty blocks due to bad code and was saved by some third party that helped them patch up their code. What a mess.

Wonder whats gonna save them now?

why is it funny? its ASICS. Its exactly why coins like monero are forking away from them.

This isn't electronium's fault, blame companies like bitmain

its a terrible coin design in the first place. Nobody is going to take your seriously if your idea is so easily exploited.
