⛏️ A Solo Miner Quietly Packed Block 955237 to the Brim

35/ 100

June 24, 2026 at 10:11 PM UTC

Block 955237 was mined by an unknown solo miner — someone operating outside the major mining pools — which is a rare sight on the Bitcoin network today. They filled the block almost entirely to its weight limit with 4,223 transactions, making it one of the busiest blocks around. Curiously, the total fees recorded are essentially zero, which is unusual for a block this packed.
