There is an ongoing coordinated and sophisticated attack and flippening attempt on Bitcoin that started last week and is targeted to climax at the the BTC difficulty adjustment that is happening tomorrow.
Attacks in progress:
Coordinated and timed pumping of BCH and selling of BTC, described here: https://twitter.com/Andy_Hoffman_CG/status/951452137094967301
Last week Ver bought control of the Bitcoin twitter account and has been shilling BCH and slamming BTC
Last week Ver bought control of blockexplorer.com and the site will now call BCH "Bitcoin" and "BTC".
The mempool spam restarted last week after going away, and it is sustained.
The BTC difficulty adjustment is happening in a few hours. It is certain they have actions planned to capitalize on it – they will totally spam the mempool at that time and launch massive propaganda on several fronts, and try and steal hashrate, overload BTC, and achieve a flippening.
They will not succeed of course. They have many tricks but they do not have the Bitcoin community. And the biggest weapon of Bitcoin is the community: https://twitter.com/Xentagz/status/930518112272777218
