A solo miner managed to discover a Bitcoin block on their own, earning approximately $281,000 worth of 3.128 BTC. The earnings happened, but what are the odds? The average solo miner has less than a 0.001% chance of hitting the same luck. These lucky moments show how rare they are—happening to one person among millions.

I can't tell if this guy's really lucky or if a machine ran for years to hit... a 0.001% chance. Honestly, it's even harder than winning the lottery.

Oh chosen one, this probability is even harder than winning the lottery. If I were him, I would just retire and not mess around anymore.

The lonely miner's dream comes true, but what about us? Let's keep mining...

Damn, this luck is just too incredible... The probability is less than 0.001%, and I actually hit it?
