Home Miner Wins $232K Bitcoin Block with 14-Unit Avalon Rig
On June 2, reports updated the solo mining win of Bitcoin block 951771, revealing the miner used 12 Canaan Avalon Nano 3S units plus two Avalon Mini 3 units for roughly 147-157 TH/s hashrate via the Braiins Solo pool. The May 30, 2026 block delivered the full 3.1404 BTC reward worth about $232,000, including 0.0154 BTC in fees from 2,312 transactions. Earlier coverage had attributed the find to a single 6.68 TH/s Nano 3S machine, but the expanded setup lowers the odds to approximately 1 in 6.7 million against a network hashrate of 970-1,000 EH/s. The event highlights Bitcoin’s permissionless design and has boosted hobbyist interest without shifting industrial hashrate dominance.
