According to BlockBeats, based on mempool data, miners mined an empty block at Bitcoin height 871732 (i.e., the block only contains one transaction for the block reward Coinbase), with only a 6-second interval from the last block height.
Miners package empty blocks out of economic considerations, and this is the wisest choice for miners. To make full use of this time for mining and to avoid conflicts with transactions packed in the parent block, miners cannot fill the block with transactions, which means that miners can only attempt to mine empty blocks.
