⛏️ A Solo Miner Packs Block 954670 to the Brim

35/ 100

June 21, 2026 at 07:45 AM UTC

Block 954670 was mined by an unknown entity — likely a solo miner rather than a large pool — which is a rare sight in today's highly competitive mining landscape. They filled it almost entirely to the block weight limit with 4,499 transactions, squeezing in as much activity as possible. What's unusual is that all those transactions came with essentially zero fees recorded, making this block a curious data point.
