Wow, this solo miner really beat the odds! Running just 2.3 PH/s, they managed to solve a full Bitcoin block and earned over 3 BTC — about $347,000. Considering the insanely low chance (like 1 in 2,800 per day), this is a huge win.

It’s crazy to think most mining is done in huge pools, but this shows solo miners can still hit big if they’re patient and lucky. Of course, it’s risky and not many will get that lucky, but it’s proof that solo mining isn’t dead.

I wonder how many people out there keep trying solo mining despite the odds. It feels a bit like buying a lottery ticket, but with some skill and solid hardware behind it.

What do you all think — is solo mining worth it anymore, or should everyone just join pools? I feel like stories like this keep the dream alive for solo miners, even if it’s a rare payday.
