Which one is correct?

DvD please check this
penambang you always bring me the very best puzzles ;-)
This calls for FORENSIC ANALYSIS LAD!
SO...let's start by baselining our assumptions shall we?
Both block explorers are based on databases (mysql in the case of xtc's ABE explorer)...
This means that they BOTH can be wrong! Let's see what reality is...
With ABE you get what you pay for :p
It currently cannot tell the difference between a POW block and POS block -- it thinks the chain is one way or the other...I may or may not patch that and give it back to the community...low priority
What this looks like is someone isn't processing ORPHANS correctly -- I'm just guessing at this point...
THE ONLY SOURCE OF TRUTH IS THE BLOCKCHAIN ./2GiveCoind getblockbynumber 1000

Comparing that to the raw block in BlockExperts we see this version:
{

}
THE OBVIOUS DIFFERENCE is in the "tx" block where we see that there is difference in the first TX
XTC / ABE = 167f3e527a1a29d3caeb465b661bf5a46ade2fbdc4246769d029fc47a41f926d
BLOCKEXPERTS = eae48bbb6e9863ecb6caab688842e7f1803bb5945f4029001a1be382b675eb7a
Let's assume that we can ONLY trust the blockchain -- so we can, easily from the command line see which is the real TX
Lets try the BlockExperts TX first!
./2GiveCoind gettransaction eae48bbb6e9863ecb6caab688842e7f1803bb5945f4029001a1be382b675eb7a
error: {"code":-5,"message":"No information available about transaction"}
This was confirmed on three different nodes
Now, lets check the XTC / ABE TX next!
./2GiveCoind gettransaction 167f3e527a1a29d3caeb465b661bf5a46ade2fbdc4246769d029fc47a41f926d

THEREFORE, it appears that BLOCKEXPERTS is NOT accounting for the ORPHAN !!
Sending in another support ticket ;-)
