On April 29th, independent mining pool ckpool's software engineer and administrator Con Kolivas posted on social media that a miner had mined the 282nd independent block in Bitcoin history. The miner's computing power at the time was about 120PH, which is equivalent to about 0.12 EH, with an average of about 12 PH per week, accounting for about 0.02% of the total network hash rate.

Recently, on April 20th, when Bitcoin halved at block 840,000, the reward for solving block 841,286 decreased from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC, which means that at the then BTC price, it was worth about $200,000.
