On Sep 4, 2025, this miner using mining hardware found block #913,171. They were mining alone — no big pool, just their own machines competing directly against the entire Bitcoin network (1021.35 EH/s total).
Winning solo means keeping 100% of the reward — no pool fees, no sharing. High risk, high reward.
