Monero made changes to their mining algorithm to make it ASIC resistant again - it's CryptoNight v7 afaik. So the decrease in hashrate everybody experienced is because of that, and I don't know if they are planning to tweak it to get more hashpower again.

Oh that is good to hear. Monero is the most popular coin to mine using botnets, and I have read recently there is even malware on android smartphones mining XMR. After that algo update Monero Network Hashrate went down from over 1GH/s to less than 500MH/s.

Only idiots mine cryptonight on cpu. -50%

PS   And 5645 - 400 H/s  criptonight, all intel -  60 h/s on thread w/o overclock and 80 with ovclock

Ryzen have only 1+  - 65W

Yes and mining monero is more profitable now. Botnets must be stopped too everytime.

I am so glad to hear that news. The Monero dev team did a very well job. The update of algo will kick botnets out. So good and fair for our cpu miners. Nice!

Even with the change of algorithm, I still doubt that botnet miners will stop find a way to make it again possible. This is a great development though which I think will last for long. Let's just hope that XMR devs be consistent on what they are doing to prevent this kind of inequality mining. I wonder how many coins they manage to mine before this change of algo happened.

if look on minergate - they split old XMR with new one... to old give name Monero Original (XMO) and look like on
old v6 is: World 889.5MH/s (Difficulty:106,720,862,647) and grow
on v7 is: World 442.1MH/s (Difficulty:53,047,357,595) not much but too grow
