⛏️ A Solo Miner Packs Block 955170 to the Brim

35/ 100

June 24, 2026 at 01:04 PM UTC

Block 955170 was mined by an unknown solo miner — someone working alone rather than as part of a mining pool — which is a rare feat given how competitive Bitcoin mining is today. They filled the block almost entirely to its weight limit with 4,427 transactions, making it one of the busiest blocks you'll see. Interestingly, the total fees collected round down to 0 BTC, so this was a high-activity block that didn't necessarily mean big rewards.
