🎓 Explain Like I'm 10

Bitcoin mining is a giant lottery. Every ~10 minutes, one miner wins 3.1692 Bitcoin — worth $269,383 today.

On Jul 31, 2026, this miner using a Large mining farm found block #960,398. They were mining alone — no big pool, just their own machines competing directly against the entire Bitcoin network (1031.29 EH/s total).

Winning solo means keeping 100% of the reward — no pool fees, no sharing. High risk, high reward.

Avg Gap

How we estimate: Each Bitcoin block found requires approximately difficulty × 2³² hashes. With 55 blocks over 378 days, the implied sustained hashrate is 984.9 PH/s.

⚠️ Not a solo miner. At 984.9 PH/s this is a large mining operation — likely an unregistered pool or industrial farm that mempool.space doesn't yet have a signature for. We display the block for completeness but mark it accordingly.

🔍 How We Know This

⛓️

Block is on the Bitcoin blockchain

The block hash starts with many zeros — proof of work that cannot be faked. It's in Bitcoin's immutable history forever.

🏷️

Pool identified from coinbase tag

The coinbase transaction contains a text signature: 0lj://e965ff8f-b25d-4e53-9429-c6bfefefc3cb(

📡

Hashrate from Estimated from block frequency (55 blocks found)

We query the pool's public API using the miner's wallet address to get their actual submitted hashrate.

❓ What is Solo Mining?

In pool mining, thousands of miners work together and split the reward every time they find a block.

In solo mining, you work alone. You keep 100% of the reward — but you might go years without finding anything.

The Bitcoin network produces ~52,560 blocks per year. Each block currently pays 3.125 BTC.

Every solo block is proof that small miners can still win. 🎉
