beanjo55 commented 6 years ago

the issue stems form the coinbase transaction being invalid when the most significant bit is 1

from the original patch developer: "This is actually a bug in ccminer that comes into play now we are past block 32768 (0x8000).

The issue is that ccminer (and a couple of other miners) are incorrectly encoding the block height into the coinbase transaction if the most significant bit of the block height is 1 (as is now the case). This issue will prevent you from solo-mining any blocks until you we are at block 65536 (0x10000)."
