An independent miner mined 853,742 blocks and received block rewards worth approximately $210,000

ChainCatcher news, according to Decrypt, a solo Bitcoin miner successfully processed block 853,742, earning a block reward worth approximately $210,000. This miner processed a block containing 4,365 transactions and received a reward of 3.19 BTC.

Although the chances of a single miner successfully processing a block are extremely low, this lucky event indicates that individual miners still have the opportunity to reap substantial rewards from the Bitcoin network. Such events are very rare, with the last similar occurrence happening in April of this year, when a miner won a reward of $218,500.
