A solo miner with around 70 TH/s of hashpower has mined Bitcoin block 944306 through Solo CKPool, earning 3.128 BTC worth about $222,000. Based on network difficulty, the chance of success for a miner this size is about 1 in 100,000 per day, which is roughly equivalent to once every 300 years. The rare win highlights how independent miners can still occasionally secure full block rewards despite the dominance of large mining pools and industrial-scale operations.
