A minor Solo Bitcoin (BTC) succeeded on a blockage on Saturday, collecting the BTC 3.125 block award, worth $ 372,773.
The minor, operating via the solo CK pool, a solo operating service, successfully extracted the 907283 block, which contained 4,038 transactions and block costs totaling $ 3,436.
The network’s hatching and network difficulty make more and more difficult for solo minors to compete with large -scale mining companies.
Despite the chances of solo minors, we managed to extract a block in February 2025, followed by a minor who used only 2.3 Petahashes to resolve the puzzle and collect the subsidy of $ 350,000 earlier in July.

This obliges minors to spend ever larger computer and electric resources to operate a single block, which gives a reward of 3.125 BTC, worth $ 373,000 at current prices.
Competitive industry takes place on thin margins, encouraging companies to find the cheapest energy resources to maintain maximum availability, which is affected by weather events, global climate and energy continuity.
In June, several bitcoin minors in Texas were forced to limit their energy consumption to avoid paying cutting -edge requests to the network operator, causing a drop in the production of short -term blocks.
Mara was one of the mining companies that have declared lower production numbers for June, due to the weather conditions slowing mining operations.
