A miner operating with just 2.3 petahashes per second on CKpool discovered block 903883, a rare event estimated to happen once every eight years for such a small rig.
The miner received over 3 BTC as a reward, showcasing success with modest hardware compared to larger operations that require significantly more hashpower.
Solo victories in mining, while rare, have been achieved by individuals even as network difficulty rises, emphasizing luck and probability in solo mining endeavors.
As large-scale mining firms reduce operations due to increasing energy costs, individual miners demonstrate that with patience and fortune, success in mining is still attainable.
