The administrator of the CKPOL POLIVAS Platform (Kon Colivas) said that a single miner got a block 910,440 in a bitcoin network and received 3.137 BTC ($ 371,576) in the form of rewards and commissions.

According to Colivas, the miner mined bitcoins using equipment with a hashrate 9 Th/s. There were 4900 transactions in the block. Of these, 3300 had a commission less than Satoshi for a virtual byte (SAT/VB). Additional profit from such operations amounted to 0.0018 BTC ($ 220) – 0.06% of the Blok award.

According to the technical director of Asickey Samuel Lee, a miner with a capacity of 1 PH/S has only one chance of 650,000 to find a block every 10 minutes. Real chances appear only at dozens of ph/s.

Among the single miners on the CKPool platform, uniting capacities for the sake of increasing the chances of finding blocks, only the one who managed to add a block receives a reward. He takes the whole reward, without sharing it with the rest, as is practiced in other pools engaged in Bitcoin mining.

Earlier, a group of French deputies sent a bill to the Parliamentary Committee on Finance, General Economics and Budget Control, allowing power plants to use excess electricity for mining bitcoins.
