Can anyone explain this?

I stopped mining TRC 3 hours ago (P2Pool) but 23 minutes ago my client suddenly said "incoming!":


It's perfectly normal. P2Pool uses the PPLNS reward system.

Your contribution during a time window is used to compute your reward. I don't know the window used for Terracoin, on Bitcoin P2Pool uses a 24h window or the time needed to produce 3 blocks, whichever is smaller.

You don't have to mine or even run your node to be rewarded if P2Pool finds a block.
