The underlying browser for chrome on iOS is still safari. The same is true for every other browser.

Which is weird though, I had a few sites not render properly on Edge on iOS but did on Safari. Some kind of compatibility mode?

...however Chrome does not have the same privileges to run accelerated js on iOS that Safari does. Interestingly though this attack has nothing to do with javascript.

If they finally switched from the deprecated UIWebView to WKWebView, then chrome too gets to run JS at safari's speed. WKWebView runs out of process and thus can have the JIT entitlements.
