Yes it's true but the ETC CRIMINAL COIN supporters don't want you to know the true. Anyone hodling a bag of this shite deserves to be fleeced by the criminals.

I have seen some articles recently that ethereum classic is vulnerable to a 51% attack, based on the idea that the mining software is similar to other mining software, so it would take a small amount of computing power to get to 51%, eg https://www.reddit.com/r/EthereumClassic/comments/5q5o6n/etc_is_very_vulnerable_to_a_51_double_spend/

Is this true? With a market cap of $100 million I don't see how these numbers can add up. Can the risk of a 51% attack be thought of in terms of market cap, or is there no relationship? Are other major altcoins susceptible to such an attack?
