Why does the Kaspa explorer show transactions that were discarded?

The Kaspa block explorer records every transaction it sees — including ones that were eventually discarded — and there is no indicator in the transaction list to tell them apart from valid ones. In a blockDAG, parallel blocks can each contain conflicting or duplicate transaction records. When consensus resolves which blocks are authoritative, some transactions get thrown out, but the explorer has already logged them all. Because the list view does not flag which records survived and which did not, a transaction appearing in the list does not by itself confirm it was accepted. This matters for beginners because seeing a transaction in the explorer does not mean it settled — always verify your actual balance rather than counting entries in the transaction list.
