At the moment networkhashps is 894.81 hashes at the current block 1708, how is it possibile? 2 days before there was only 200 hash/s, please create a pool or few people can get a lot of people and all us nothing..
Some how, a BIG mistake was made that put the difficulty WAY TO HIGH, it was taking 2 hours for mine a block instead the target of 2 minutes 45 seconds.
On Saturday a slow and steady increase of the hash rate was happening until it peaked at around 1100 hps and we target time was meet.
I think that the developers spined up a few hundred of VMs to reach the difficulty change block, around 1900 ahead of the 9th.
And I REALLY welcome that move, with one block every 2 hours the launch of Minexbank was going to be a DOA.

PS: I don't think it is GPU mining, unless they have a bunch of them in-house, the coin uses a non standard algorithm, that will make really hard to "hire" external GPU power
