⛏️ A lone miner packs Block 954,991 to the brim

35/ 100

June 23, 2026 at 10:59 AM UTC

This block was mined by an unknown solo miner — someone working alone rather than as part of a mining pool — which is a rare sight in today's competitive landscape. They filled the block almost completely to its weight limit with nearly 5,000 transactions. Curiously, the total fees collected come to essentially zero, making the block reward the only payout.
