⛏️ A Solo Miner Packs Block 955169 to the Brim

35/ 100

June 24, 2026 at 12:34 PM UTC

Block 955169 was mined by an unknown solo miner — a rare sight in an era dominated by large mining pools. At 1.71 MB and 4,126 transactions, it's stuffed almost to the maximum allowed size, meaning whoever mined this made the most of every byte. Solo miners compete against massive operations, so finding a full block like this one is a quiet, satisfying underdog moment.
