For more details, check the official fork page It might seem that it is the end of the story, but we suddenly have another Electroneum fork announced at bitcointalk - Electronero ETNX . The "team" claims to provide:The main aims of Electronero cannot be really clearly stated even in their 10-page whitepaper (it actually has 8 pages of the text that means something).

For all the Electroneum users - it is promised that you claim your new Electronero 1:1 ETNX for ETN. But don't risk if you will be asked to use your ETN keys in the new ETNX wallet (that is not even released, by the way) as it might be fraudsters that will steal all your ETN.

The only good thing about Electronero is that it's not trying to become ASIC-friendly fork as happened to Monero and Monero Classic. More details in this article.
