Are unusual log messages in my Kaspa node a sign of a problem?

Messages like 'Ignoring duplicate block,' 'missing parents,' 'IDB,' and 'Resolving virtual' in your Kaspa node logs are all normal — they do not indicate errors or faults. Kaspa operates as a blockDAG, meaning blocks can be created in parallel across the network and may arrive at your node in a different order than they were produced. When that happens, the node automatically queues missing ancestors, holds blocks with unknown parents in an orphan pool, unorphans them once the parents arrive, and runs internal database routines like IDB to stay consistent. Recognizing these messages as routine lets you run your node confidently instead of interpreting ordinary housekeeping as something broken.
