Independent Bitcoin (BTC) miners found 36 blocks from Feb. 11 through Nov. 7, with about 113.149 BTC in combined rewards including transaction fees.
Rewards for individual blocks were roughly 3.13 BTC to 3.2 BTC. Recent successful finds included blocks through CKPool Solo, and some involved small home mining machines.
Bitcoin adjusts mining difficulty every 2,016 blocks to keep average block production near 10 minutes. Higher difficulty means miners must perform more computational work to find a block.
