Thanos hardfork causes a rise in Ethereum Classic (ETC) hashrate

Ethereum Classic (ETC) recently saw a successful implementation of the Thanos hard fork. The move was made only days ago, on November 29th. Interestingly, the hard fork was followed by a significant surge of the ETC blockchain’s hashrate. Thanos hardfork was an important move for Ethereum Classic, as it increased the project’s network security. After ETC hacking attack earlier this year, the new hard fork was meant to increase the project’s hashrate, thus making it less vulnerable to 51% attacks. As it turns out, the fork achieved its goal. The project’s hashrate climbed up from 3.3 terahashes per second (TH/s)
