ETN\u2019s spike began on Tuesday (September 18, 2018). At the time, Electroneum\u2019s value stood at $0.005. By the following day, ETN surged to $0.015, an increase of 200 percent. This price spike catapulted Electroneum into the 52nd position on the market capitalization ranking.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21355\" src=\"https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Screenshot_2018-09-28-Electroneum-ETN-price-charts-market-cap-and-other-metrics-CoinMarketCap.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"392\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Screenshot_2018-09-28-Electroneum-ETN-price-charts-market-cap-and-other-metrics-CoinMarketCap.png 720w, https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Screenshot_2018-09-28-Electroneum-ETN-price-charts-market-cap-and-other-metrics-CoinMarketCap-300x163.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After its Tuesday\/Wednesday spike, ETN continued to increase, even more, adding to its value in the process. ETN\u2019s market capitalization currently sits at $201 million. At the zenith of the Thursday surge, Electroneum reached $0.027, its highest price since the start of May 2018.<\/p>\n<p>As at press time, ETN had recovered from a minor pullback and seems destined to test $0.026 once again.<\/p>\n<h3>Double Spending Bug Fixed<\/h3>\n<p>Despite the significant price rally, ETN\u2019s trading volume hasn\u2019t increased. Much of the spike appears due to some critical updates made to Electroneum\u2019s operating protocols, as well as the mobile payment app beta launch.<\/p>\n<p>Electroneum which is a fork of the privacy-focused coin Monero inherited a bug which allowed <a href=\"https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/51-attack-zencash-the-latest-victim-of-a-suspected-double-spend-attack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">double spending attacks<\/a> by funding an exchange multiple times with the same coins. According to reports, ETN\u2019s development team recently patched the bug as announced in a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/electroneum\/status\/1045057414167515136?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">tweet<\/a> posted on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Exchanges notified, code is patched and available to go live again. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oJjUEi7it0\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/oJjUEi7it0<\/a> we would advise all command line users to update.
