Solo miner wins big prize: Find $350,000 Worth of Bitcoin!

Updated
September 9, 2025

Jakarta, Pintu News – A lucky crypto miner recently managed to find Block 913,593 on his own, beating the very slim odds. The miner earned a block reward of approximately $347,000 in Bitcoin (BTC).

A similar incident once occurred on block 907,283, according to a U.Today report, showing that although the chances are small, there is still a possibility for great success in solo mining.

Solo Mining in the Midst of High Hashrate

Bitcoin’s (BTC) hashrate, which measures the total computing power of the network, recently hit a record high. With the hashrate currently approaching 1 zettahash, it is extremely difficult to mine blocks solo.

The previously mentioned blocks were successfully produced with the help of the SoloSK pool, a non-profit organization that provides the necessary infrastructure for independent miners. This high hashrate indicates an increased difficulty in finding blocks independently.

Nonetheless, the success of solo miners in finding blocks is proof that with the right equipment and a little luck, the impossible can become possible. Pools like SoloSK play an important role in giving small miners a chance to compete in an industry dominated by big players.

Solo Block Mining Opportunities

Solo mining, while it has its success stories, is basically not worth it from a practical perspective and is more suitable as a hobby or lottery ticket. According to available statistics, a solo miner can only find a block approximately once every 88 years.

The lucky miner managed to get the entire block reward at a hash rate of 200 terahashes per second (TH/s), likely using an Avalon Mini 3 37.5T. This is a statistical miracle, given that the chances of finding a block solo are slim.

The U.Today report even states that a person is more likely to be struck by lightning during their lifetime compared to finding a Bitcoin (BTC) block solo. Stories like these catch the attention of many and give little hope to small miners around the world.

Conclusion

The story of the solo miner who managed to find a block of Bitcoin (BTC) worth $347,000 shows that even though the odds are very small, there is still room for luck in the crypto world.

This success not only highlights the potential for huge profits, but also the importance of an infrastructure that supports independent miners. As technology and networks continue to evolve, there may be more similar success stories in the future.
