Extremely Rare Bitcoin Block Produced by Solo Miner

The article reports that a solo Bitcoin miner was able to produce an entire Bitcoin block, earning a reward of 3.125 BTC (approximately $303,500). The rarity of this achievement suggests that it may have been done by a nation-state miner or a private individual. Bob Burnett, CEO of Barefoot Mining, warns against publicly revealing such information as it can have potential drawbacks. The difficulty of solo mining has increased over the years, leading to the rise of mining pools. Foundry US and AntPool are currently the largest mining pools worldwide.
