A lone Bitcoin miner recently achieved a significant milestone by successfully processing a Bitcoin block and earning nearly $200,000. The miner, operating under the Solo CK Pool, processed block number 858,978, containing 2,391 transactions. Despite the average network hashrate being 665 EH/s, the Solo CK miner utilized 456/PH worth of hashrate. This success is noteworthy as large mining firms dominate the industry, making it rare for solo miners to validate blocks. The Solo CK miner has solved 14 blocks in the past year, earning 59.3 Bitcoin, equivalent to $3.5 million. This achievement is even more remarkable considering that solo miners have only successfully validated around 290 blocks out of the 859,000 produced since Bitcoin's inception. The most recent solo-mined block, 853,742, yielded a reward of approximately $210,000.

The Rise of Dogecoin and Litecoin in Mining Industry

Friday. December 6 at 8:00 AM

Bitcoin mining company BIT Mining has revealed that mining Dogecoin and Litecoin is more profitable than mining Bitcoin alone. The firm, based in Akron, Ohio, stated that these two cryptocurrencies are proving to be lucrative options due to their increased profitability compared to Bitcoin. Dogecoin, initially created as a joke, has now become the seventh largest digital coin, largely due to Elon Musk's influence. By engaging in merged mining of Dogecoin and Litecoin, BIT Mining has seen nearly three times more profitability than solely mining Bitcoin. The surge in prices of Dogecoin and Litecoin can be attributed to Musk's support and Donald Trump's backing of the crypto space. Despite Musk's positive comments on Dogecoin, he has clarified that he is not actively involved in cryptocurrency. BIT Mining has successfully mined significant amounts of Litecoin and Dogecoin, valued at millions of dollars. As the crypto market continues to evolve, diversifying revenue streams through mining alternative cryptocurrencies has proven to be a wise strategy for companies like BIT Mining.
