An independent Bitcoin miner received the entire 3.125 BTC block reward by verifying block 841286

Con Kolivas, a software engineer and administrator of the independent mining pool ckpool, posted on X that a miner had mined the 282nd independent block in Bitcoin history. The miner's computing power at the time was about 120PH, equivalent to about 0.12 EH, an average of about 12 PH a week, accounting for about 0.02% of the total network computing power. Since the Bitcoin network block reward has recently been reduced from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC, this means that it is worth about $200,000 at the BTC price at the time.
