flap.hashrapid is getting all blocks from 7694-7706
whats going on?
They are forking the block chain.
Can someone quickly explain to me what happens when a pool forks??
Does it actually start running on a separate block chain from the rest of the currency? Does it essentially become two chains of the same currency, creating duplicate coins?
Stop mining at hashrapid as they are on the wrong fork. When they update their wallet they will get back to the main chain and you will lose all your coin that you mined on the wrong chain.
This is not a big deal. Blockchain fork all the time.
Not mining with Hashrapid, I've been sticking with Flappycoinpool recently. Was just looking to understand forking a bit more, and wrap my head head around why it occurs, and what the results of it are.
