⛏️ A Solo Miner Claims Block 955254 — Packed to the Brim

35/ 100

June 25, 2026 at 12:55 AM UTC

This block was mined by an unknown entity — likely a solo miner rather than a large mining pool — which is a rare feat given how competitive Bitcoin mining has become. With 4,006 transactions squeezed in and the block filled right up to its weight limit, whoever mined this made the most of every byte. Curiously, total fees recorded are 0.00 BTC, which makes the economics of this block worth a second look.
