Do you think it's the same entity doing these attacks? Who has the hash power to pull this off?

great to see ya bobby! get them juicy upvotes! :)

Bitcoin Cash is next, any POW coin is possible, just depends on the hashpower behind it and how much the attackers are willing to spend...

let's fight the forces of evil, in cryptocurrency we trust

This cryptocrap is full of bugs and flaws. I would expect alot more attacks in the future.
