    According to the attacking pool statistics (can be wrong and faked), their pool reeched 51% of the XMR hashrate, but at same time, https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero shown a 42% share of that pool. So the difference is pretty big. I would rather trust that 42% number (it can not be faked?). We should mine and do not promote that selfish mining pool.

        I have seen that at same time the https://miningpoolstats.stream/monero shown a 42% (not 51%), so I would rather trust that 42% number (it can not be faked?).

          it’s just API call from the pool, it should be possible to fake
