During Bitcoin Wednesday on 6 March, 2019, core developer Martin Kuvandzhiev gave this presentation on key vulnerabilities of blockchain technology, and especially the 51% attack.
His talk covers the cross-chain notarization technique for protecting against future attacks.

In this separate interview he gives even more details about the attack, including his dialogue with the exchange Bittrex where the theft was executed and the NiceHash cloud-mining service which may know the identity of the attacker.
