Just read: A solo miner just spent $75 on cloud hashrate and found block 938,092. Full reward: 3.125 BTC, which is over $200,000 at the current price of $73.72k. This is like trying to win with a slingshot against a rifle. The odds are absurdly small, but someone has to hit the jackpot. The miner used 1 petahash per second via CKPool and needed about 119,000 Satoshis for that. Mathematically, it's a 2,600-fold return on a lottery ticket with more transparent odds than real lotteries. What's interesting is: this is happening more and more often. In the past, solo mining was practically impossible without massive hardware investments. Today, on-demand hash rate rental models allow anyone to try their luck and generate digital assets. The cryptographic puzzle is reset every 10 minutes, and the competition is measured purely by computational power. Statistically, it shows: 21 solo miners earned a total of 66 BTC last year, despite increased network difficulty. That's a 17 percent increase compared to the previous year. For anyone wondering if it's still possible — yes, it is. Just proven.
