I am running a full Unbreakablecoin (a Bitcoin clone) node.
Blocks were being generated every few minutes or so, until about a week ago. Now, the block height has been stuck at 82666 for multiple days. Also and all peers seem to have one thing in common: They have some reference to a single IP address of 71.71.215.6
Is this some sort of hack/attack? If yes, how is it being accomplished?
