⚡ Block #954,993

⛏️ A lone miner strikes gold at block 954,993

11/ 100

June 23, 2026 at 11:07 AM UTC

This block was mined by an unknown solo miner — not one of the big mining pools that dominate most blocks. Solo mining is rare: it means one person (or small operation) competed against the entire network and won, claiming the full block reward for themselves. It's a quiet reminder that Bitcoin's original vision of individual mining is still alive.
