🎓 Explain Like I'm 10

Bitcoin mining is a giant lottery. Every ~10 minutes, one miner wins 3.1472 Bitcoin — worth $259,912 today.

On Oct 16, 2026, this miner using a Industrial mining operation found block #971,719. They were mining alone — no big pool, just their own machines competing directly against the entire Bitcoin network (1021.75 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 2 blocks over 0 days, the implied sustained hashrate is 29.49 EH/s.

⚠️ Not a solo miner. At 29.49 EH/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.
