On April 28th, a notable event occurred in the world of <a href="https://coin-turk.com/coinbasein-halk-arzi-bitcoin-btc-icin-neden-onemli" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a> (<a href="https://coin-turk.com/bitcoine-btc-olan-ilgi-hala-2017-yilindakine-yakin-degil" data-wpel-link="internal">BTC</a>) mining as a solo miner successfully mined a block, collecting the entire block reward and transaction fees, totaling $218,000. 
<h2 style="text-align: justify" id="strong-a-one-in-five-thousand-chance-becomes-reality-strong">A One in Five Thousand Chance Becomes Reality</h2> 
Using CKpool‘s solo <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/crypto-analyst-credible-crypto-issues-bitcoin-crash-warning-as-btc-struggles-below-key-level/" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a> mining software, the miner achieved a significant gain of 3,433 <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/challenges-and-resilience-for-bitcoin-miners-as-reward-halving-approaches/" data-wpel-link="internal">BTC</a> worth approximately $218,544. This impressive gain, as reported by Bitcoin explorer Mempool, includes 0.308 BTC from transaction fees worth $19,607 and a block reward of 3.125 BTC totaling $198,937. 
A successful Bitcoin miner, starting with the address 365ug…, achieved this feat using a hashrate of about 120 PH/s, which is notable considering the entire Bitcoin network’s massive computing power of about 638 EH/s. The solo miner’s success, estimated at a probability of about 0.02% or one in five thousand, is recorded as a noteworthy event in the mining world. 
While such events are relatively rare, they are not unprecedented. In the past, solo miners with significantly lower hashrates have defied seemingly insurmountable odds to claim block rewards. For instance, a solo miner with only 126 TH/s hashrate achieved a similar feat in 2022, winning a reward worth approximately $260,000 despite the odds of one in 1.3 million.

CKpool developer Con Kolivas speculated on the possible reasons behind the solo miner’s success, suggesting that the miner might have recently transitioned from pool mining following the fourth block reward halving in April. Alternatively, the miner could have intermittently mined solo or leased significant computing power independently.

Bitcoin’s fourth block reward halving on April 20th was a significant milestone in the supply of the largest cryptocurrency, reducing the block reward per mined block from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. Despite this change, the recent success of the solo miner demonstrates that individuals and organizations dedicated to mining continue to find Bitcoin mining appealing. 
Ultimately, the success of the solo miner is a testament to the resilience and creativity of participants in the Bitcoin mining ecosystem. As the world of Bitcoin continues to evolve and change, such events underscore the dynamic nature of cryptocurrency mining and the potential rewards awaiting those who overcome its challenges with skill and determination.
