When Bitcoin's mining makes the solitary shine
Bitcoin's mining divides: some are enriched, others abandon. He opposes patients, obstinate, with discouraged impatient. However, the recent success of a solo minor recalls that the dream is still allowed. This block, resolved via the solo.ckpool poolreported 3.15 BTC, or more than $ 330,000.
This minor, identified as “BC1QA8R …”was not a beginner. But he changed his method. By temporarily praising A calculation power of 261 pH/she has maximized his chances. Normally, his activity remained modest, with 6.11 pH/s per week. This tactical choice, almost clandestine, paid.
The lucky one joined 3,680 transactions in its blockflawless validated. This feat is also a reminder. Behind the big data centers, the discreet geek in his garage can still hope. The proof: since February, several BTC solo miners have won the bet in improbable conditions.
