Operating under the Solo CK pool, the miner received 3.125 Bitcoin subsidy and 0.026 BTC in fees. The average fee per transaction was $0.29, indicating low network congestion. The miner's hashrate peaked at 259 PH/s, likely due to rented computational power aimed at winning a block. Bitcoin's mining difficulty hit a record high of 126.98 trillion on June 1, reflecting increased competition. Solo mining successes, like this one, are becoming rarer as difficulty rises.
