This is part of the Windowed PoSt epic. Imagine that you’re a miner mining on chain A, and you posted a PoSt correctly under the right window, 4 epochs before it was about to close. However, there was a fork in the network, and chain B appears with a heavier weight which anchors to H-5. Everyone, including you, switches to chain B, therefore your proof is lost.
First:
[ ] confirm what should happen here (message posted on Lotus slack).
[ ] verify that indeed that's what happens, repeatedly.
Provide any background and technical implementation details.
Describe the test scenario.
