Solo Mining Census 2026-W38

What this is

The Solo Mining Census reads every Bitcoin solo pool that publishes its numbers, once an hour, from each pool's own public endpoint, and freezes every full week into an edition that is never edited afterwards.

We run one of these pools. SoloLuck is read on the same terms as every other pool, from the same kind of public feed. SoloLuck has not found a Bitcoin block.

Edition 2026-W38 covers 14–20 September 2026 (ISO week 2026-W38, Monday 00:00 to Monday 00:00 UTC). Frozen 2026-09-21 00:07 UTC from 168 of 168 hourly readings; never edited. How this is measured · Latest

Headline numbers

In edition 2026-W38 (14–20 September 2026), using weekly medians, the 7 Bitcoin solo pools that publish their numbers reported 298.19 PH/s of solo hashrate between them. In that edition, the 16,919 Bitaxes connected to Public Pool averaged 1.05 TH/s each. In that edition, the chance that any home miner solves a Bitcoin block this month was at least 12.3%, a lower bound.

Pools, weekly medians

The median of each pool's hourly readings across the week. We run one of these pools. Miner counts are never added up: each pool counts something different. The SoloLuck block count is today's, from the site's own record.

CKPool Solo, endpoint by endpoint

CKPool gives raw.stats.ckpool.org as its total pool statistics, and that total is the CKPool row above. The endpoints below are parts of it, so they are shown here and never added to it. Across the week CKPool's total covered the sum of these endpoints in 168 of 168 checked hours (median ratio of users 1.027, of hashrate 1.050). Evidence.
