On February 18, 2026, a home miner found Block #937,218 and walked away with 3.143 BTC worth $212,982 — while sitting at her desk.
She wasn’t running an industrial farm. She wasn’t a whale. Just someone running a solo miner from her desk while wearing a Bitcoin hard hat.
Here are some of the most recent solo Bitcoin block wins:
- A Bitaxe Supra (~650 GH/s) won 3.192 BTC ≈ $200K
- A Bitaxe Ultra won 3.150 BTC
- A NerdQaxe++ won 3.141 BTC
- A Bitaxe Gamma won 3.146 BTC
- And now this desk miner just won $213K with a Public Pool setup
Every single one of these winners used consumer-grade, open-source ASIC hardware. No industrial rigs. No privileged access. Just a box that fits on your desk and plugs into the wall.
So what’s the catch?
The odds. The math says any single hash is like picking one specific cubic centimetre from an ocean. The probability of your single miner finding a block right now is effectively microscopic.
But here’s what the odds also say: someone is going to find the next block. Bitcoin doesn’t care what the odds say. And every hash you don’t make is a lottery ticket you’re throwing away.
Solo mining is high-variance. There will be long droughts. But when it hits? It hits like a freight train. $200,000+. Tax-free in most places if you hold for the long term. Life-changing money from a device that draws less electricity than your gaming PC.
The best part? You don’t need to be a girl in a Bitcoin hard hat (though it clearly doesn’t hurt). You just need a solo mining setup, a Bitcoin address, and the willingness to play the lottery that pays out $200K+ per block.
Power Mining’s solo pool has zero fees, no registration required, and currently has 400+ active devices competing. Hardware ships to 50+ countries. Setup takes under 10 minutes.
Every hash is a lottery ticket. Are you playing?
