Two Solo Bitcoin Miners Find Blocks Back-to-Back Against Industrial Giants
- —Block 973262 was mined by a Futurebit Apollo Solo, the fourth Apollo solo block on record
- —Block 973413 was found by a Solo CKPool miner with only 16.2 TH/s of hashrate
- —At 16.2 TH/s against a ~1,070 EH/s network, daily odds were about 0.0002%
- —Expected time between such finds at that hashrate is nearly 1,200 years
Why it matters: The rare back-to-back solo blocks show independent miners can still win full block rewards despite industrial pool dominance.
