Our network is under attack. All founds are safe and after we will set the network up everything will work again.

I wonder what the attackers are up to. I hope you are using this occasion to find ways to secure the system against future attacks, even attacks of a different kind than this one. This is crucial, otherwise you will always have to be there patching the system each time someone tries to take down the network.

Any details about the attack? Where is it coming from, what is the attack vector, who would want to do it, will it be mitigated anytime soon?

We had a flood attack. We don't know who started this attack, but we know one of the addresses used in this transaction spam attack-> https://webdollar.network/#/miner/WEBD$gAjud$KJ9+HP#9znK1RDbua2ZWnV3WwbMn$ . We  closed the browser mining and now all ours fallbacks nodes are stable -> http://nodes.wd.hostero.eu/. We're looking on multiple versions of blockchain before attack and we will release the browser mining again with enought protections for this kind of attack.
