Well, I'm not sure how it happened, but it appears due to the update, my weakest PC just mined more coins over the weekend than I have mined total over 3 - 4 months.
The wallet has a bird next to the transaction and the the "type" of transaction is "mined." Does this mean it somehow solo mined?
Sounds like you veered off onto your own fork. Be careful moving your coins until you figure it out.
I have no idea. I just tried sending 100 BBP to another wallet, and it is at 3/6 confirmations at the moment so I think I might have just gotten lucky. Please keep in mind I am not talking about a huge amount of coins by any means.
