LAST BLOCKS MINERS section doesn't show miner address

Open puneet-khushwani-eth opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

We are running this server for testnet chain (stats.mosaicdao.org). The LAST BLOCKS MINERS section on the UI shows 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000.

Looking at the code looks like it reads the miner key from the block info which is 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 for POA chains.

However for goerli (https://stats.goerli.net/) which is also a POA, we see miner addresses being displayed. Are we using a different fork / branch for hosting the server for Goerli ?

The server evaluates the block author which is always 0x0 in clique unless you vote for someone to become a new validator (or you vote to remove a validator). What you are seeing in the dashboard for görli is not the block miners but the votes.
