Verifying mined blocks

A block is only yours on the canonical chain if:

  1. nvc_getConsensusInfo shows a new height and tipHash
  2. eth_getBlockByHash / explorer shows your miner address as the fee recipient / coinbase
  3. Your address balance increased by the expected subsidy minus any later reorg

If another tip with more cumulative work appears, your block may have been orphaned. That is normal proof-of-work behavior.
