Yeah, people seem to think monero will explode the second someone passes 51% of total hashrate (greater than 100% of the non-adversarial hashrate). All this guarantees is that the adversarial chain will eventually be longer. Hashrate itself is only a proxy for how often you find blocks, which is what actually matters. Every time anyone finds a block they, for a moment, have "100%" of the rate of the whole chain. It only actually matters if they can sustain that hashrate. That's how you get graphs like this that show that qubic maintained 80%!!!!!! of the total number of blocks for a few minutes or so, but were only ever hitting 30% or 40% of blocks found. They can do reorgs (waste legitimate miner's resources) but that's about it. Deep reorgs aren't realistically going to happen, and I don't think they have enough money to actually pull off a 51% attack for enough time for it to actually do anything.
I expect they'll bring much more compute online somehow in a few days because it would be insane to make it this far and then just quit right before the point where they actually accomplish anything, but I don't think they'll be able to keep it up for very long.
The actual problem for monero is that a single schizophrenic retard can do this much damage, it's certainly not optimal.
