🚨 Solo Miner Hits $200K Jackpot with Just 0.012% of Hashrate
In an impressive turn of events, a solo Bitcoin miner from the Solo CK Pool has struck gold, solving a block with a minuscule 0.012% of the network’s total hashrate. This incredible feat has earned them a payout of nearly $200,000!
Here's the breakdown:
- Miner's Hashrate: 456 petahashes
- Network Hashrate: 665 exahashes per second (EH/s)
- Solo Miner’s Share: Just 0.012% of the network’s total hashrate
Despite operating with a fraction of the total network power, this solo miner managed to solve the block, a rare achievement in the world of Bitcoin mining dominated by large firms like Riot Blockchain and Marathon Digital.
The Solo CK Pool, known for its unique approach, pools the hash power of smaller miners but awards the entire block reward to the individual who solves it. This recent success adds to a notable track record, with the pool having solved 14 blocks in the past year, earning a total of 59.3 BTC—about $3.5 million.
Solo mining is infrequent due to the dominance of major mining operations, with solo miners having successfully processed blocks only around 290 times in Bitcoin’s 14-year history. This event stands out as another testament to the unpredictable and thrilling nature of Bitcoin mining.
Congratulations to the lucky miner! 🏆💰
