ME News reports that on August 4 (UTC+8), an independent Bitcoin miner successfully mined Bitcoin block 960804 at 02:11 UTC on Monday, earning a reward of 3.15689830 BTC, worth approximately $200,000. This reward consists of a 3.125 BTC block subsidy and 0.032 BTC in transaction fees from 4,243 transactions. Dr-ck, a developer at CKPool, stated that this was the 317th independent block mined through CKPool, with the winning address being bc1qdyqjq9qccp34pyv3kxmsrkn7p0amnsqqy8kdeq. The miner’s hash rate fluctuated significantly, peaking at 100 PH, suggesting leased hashing power. At the time, Bitcoin’s network hash rate was 924 EH/s, meaning this peak represented roughly 0.011% of the total network—equivalent to approximately one block every 64 days. CKPool enables independent miners to connect to its infrastructure without running a full Bitcoin node and charges a 2% fee on mined blocks. (Source: ODAILY)
