$330K Bitcoin block win: How one solo miner outsmarted the odds
How unlikely was it for one solo miner to beat the odds and win a Bitcoin block?
On June 5, 2025, a solo miner pulled off what most would call impossible: solving a Bitcoin block alone and earning over $330,000 in Bitcoin block rewards.
And they did it during the most competitive mining conditions in Bitcoin’s history.
At the time, Bitcoin’s difficulty was encoded as nBits: 0x1b38a1b5. That string defines the target for miners: The resulting hash of their block must fall below a certain threshold.
The lower the target, the harder the job. At this level, miners are racing to find a suitable hash out of more than 126 trillion possibilities.
That’s what made this win so unlikely.
Even though the miner in question temporarily inflated their hashrate to around 259 petahashes per second (PH/s) for a short time, it still had a 1 in 3,050 chance of finding a valid block before someone else on the global network.
Also, unlike industrial mining farms with massive setups, this miner was solo, just one machine submitting hashes through the Solo CKPool.
The miner likely rented a massive burst of computing power for a short time to make it work. It was a calculated gamble, spike the hashrate, take a shot and hope to strike gold.
