The network was attacked or flashmined about 30 minutes ago. I saw over 120 blocks get flashmined in a matter of minutes.

It started just before block 1175.

We are doing some update.  
Why they attacked our coin?    

I saw something very similar to this with Logicoin. The difficulty continued to drop and hovered around <0.5 while dozens of blocks were being minted.

Did you code this coin or was it setup for you ?

Whatever the case, it is becoming obvious that many of these coins have exploits built right into them. eg. PoW difficulty adjustment algos and hashpower exploits
