Despite the recent turbulence in Bitcoin’s (BTC) price swings, one solo miner just pulled off an incredible achievement. 🚀💥
Fresh data shows that an independent Bitcoin miner managed to secure an entire block reward on their own — something that’s statistically almost impossible. 🎯
According to reports, a lone miner using CKpool successfully discovered block #927,474, earning a total of 3.133 BTC, which is worth roughly $289,380 at today’s market value. 💰🧡
This payout includes the standard 3.125 BTC block subsidy (about $283,944) plus 0.008 BTC in transaction fees (around $689).
CKpool developer Con Kolivas shared the news on X, posting:
“Congrats to miner 1Ng9~VoQz for solving solo block 311 at solo.ckpool.org!” 🎉🔧
The odds of a miner this small solving even a single block in a day are 1 in 30,000 — meaning this kind of win might statistically occur once every 82 years. ⏳🍀
While most small miners team up with shared mining pools to secure more predictable earnings, a few dare to go solo hoping to hit the jackpot and claim the full block reward — much like playing (and winning) a lottery. 🎟️💎
Bitcoin blocks are mined approximately every 10 minutes, usually by large mining pools with far greater computational power. Following the halving earlier this year, the current block reward stands at 3.125 BTC. 🔗🟧 #BTC #bitcoin
