On 07.11, two participants of CKPool Solo independently discovered bitcoin blocks nearly seven hours apart, each receiving about 3.14 BTC.

Block discoveries and rewards

The two blocks were found on Saturday with a time gap of almost seven hours between discoveries, and each reward was approximately 3.14 BTC.

The dollar equivalent for each payout exceeded $230 000 based on the rates cited in the original report, reflecting the market value at the time.

Historical tracker data

According to the SoloBlocks tracker, from 11.02 to 07.11 the service registered 36 blocks mined solo, accumulating approximately 113 BTC in total rewards.

Solo-mined blocks remain relatively uncommon events for individual miners due to the probabilistic nature of block discovery and contemporary network hash rates.

Pool and miner context

CKPool Solo provides a solo-mining option inside a pooled infrastructure that relays found blocks directly credited to individual participants when discovery occurs.

When participants find blocks through this option, the entire block reward is attributed to that miner, which explains individual payouts close to 3.14 BTC in these cases.

Implications for solo mining

These two same-day finds illustrate that solo miners can still secure full block rewards, although such outcomes are driven by luck and sustained hashing power.

The SoloBlocks statistics underline that solo discoveries are episodic: over the recorded period, 36 solo blocks produced a combined reward near 113 BTC.
