An individual miner defied the odds and managed to collect 168 ETH from a solo mining pool this week worth 42 times the average block reward. An individual Ether (ETH) miner struck it big by mining a block on their own and receiving a reward valued at about $540,000. The miner was operating through the 2miners Ethereum SOLO pool on Jan. 17 when they mined an entire block and received 168 ETH. That reward vastly outstrips the per-block average reward of about 4 ETH according to BitInfoCharts.Adding to the remarkable nature of the reward is the size and hash power of the SOLO pool. It is....
