According to Glassnode, the computing power of the network at that time was 273.2 EH / s. The share of the miner in the indicator is 0.000000036%.
“With the current difficulty of bitcoin, a miner of this size should find a solo block about once every 500 years, which makes this event unique for him in life,” informed Kolivas.
Recall that due to the next recalculation on January 16, the mining difficulty is at a maximum mark of 37.59 T.
We also wrote in September 2022 that the BTC block mined one miner with an order of magnitude more equipment power – 270 TH / s.
