Interesting, that is one of my biggest criticisms of Monero is the small amount of hash making it much more vulnerable to this type of attack. Its hash rate in comparison to Bitcoin is minuscule.
I know the "51% attack!!!" has already went viral so there is no stopping that until it's run it's course. But that's not what happened.

Scroll down and look at the last 1,000 blocks of unknown hashrate. It's ~23% (and 1-3% of that are solominers or unknown pools that aren't qubic). The 51% attack never happened. It's intermittent reorgs from a pool selfish mining. https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero View quoted note →
