A solo miner using Braiins Solo found Bitcoin block 966351 and received the full 3.147 BTC block reward, worth about $244,900 based on the figures cited in the report. Bitcoin News tracked the event, which marked another rare instance of an independent block discovery.
The report said this was the first such solo block in nearly 40 days. The previous independent block was recorded on Aug. 2 and came from Solo CKPool. The update also highlighted how concentrated Bitcoin mining remains, with the five largest mining pools currently controlling 78.31% of total hashrate.
The figures underline how uncommon solo wins have become as mining power stays concentrated among major pools, even though individual miners can still occasionally secure a full block payout.
