your block have been orphaned by the PoS block as PoS blocks have more trust weight. Look into the log file: a few lines later you should see something like REORGANIZE: disconnect bla-bla-bla

It's there. Crap. Does this happen a lot? If so I'm not going to bother with the solo mining.


Orphans happen with any coin you mine. For example, even a large pool like 1gh.com shows 3 orphans on maxcoin right now. That might change by the time you check this, but orphans are a part of mining. Remember this, any time you hit a block that becomes part of the chain, there is a good chance that someone else submitted even moments before you that eventually became orphaned. I get an orphan block with JPC about every fourth block, which is a lot higher than for some coins, but I know that lots of others are having the same thing happen, so I figure it all averages out to me getting a fair share as a percentage of the total mining hash rate in the end.
