⛏️ Solo Miner Packs Block 955171 to the Brim

35/ 100

June 24, 2026 at 01:07 PM UTC

Block 955171 was mined by an unknown solo miner — someone working alone rather than as part of a mining pool — and they filled it almost completely to Bitcoin's block weight limit. With 4,532 transactions squeezed in, this is a notably busy block, made more interesting by the mystery of who found it.
