In an unusual development, two instances occurred in the same week in which individual miners mined a block on their own and secured rewards worth about $300,000 (roughly $400,000).

According to CoinDesk on the 17th (Korea time), each miner successfully mined a single block and received 3.15 bitcoins. The proceeds they took home totaled about $300,000 apiece.

Bitcoin mining is largely a game of probabilities, so most miners join large mining pools to stabilize income. Solo mining has a very low probability of success, but if a miner does succeed in mining a block, the advantage is that they can take the entire subsidy and fees.
