Odaily News An independent Bitcoin miner successfully mined a Bitcoin block with extremely low probability early Thursday, receiving the full block subsidy and transaction fee reward. Data from the block explorer Mempool shows that this miner, using CKpool's solo mining software, mined block 944,306, receiving a total of 3.128 Bitcoin (approximately $222,012). This includes a block subsidy of 3.125 Bitcoin (approximately $221,800) and transaction fees of 0.003 Bitcoin (approximately $212).

CKpool developer Con Kolivas posted on X: "Congratulations to the miner for mining the 313th solo block with just 70TH. A miner of this size has only about a one in one hundred thousand chance of mining a block per day, which on average would take about 300 years to happen." (The Block)
