Rigly Block Party 28 - Block #955,703
Most weeks I mine BCH through NiceHash and do not think about Bitcoin blocks. BTC hunts come from the profit pile, when the maths agrees. Block Party #28 was one of those weeks. Then the network accepted our share.
Block Party #28: block #955,703
On 27 June 2026, Rigly Block Party #28 mined Bitcoin block #955,703 on ckpool. One hundred and thirteen miners joined. Peak hashrate hit 165 PH/s. Best share: 272.33 T. Team CDK, my team, took first place. TEAM SHAUN finished second.
My share of the reward came out around 60%. I will not pretend I predicted that. Solo mining is variance. You still need the network to accept your share at the right moment. Party #28 did.
Party #29
The following week I pushed about $15,000 USD of hashrate into Block Party #29. Estimated odds were roughly one in six. That is a real shot. We did not land the block.
I knew the odds going in. Party #28 had been unusually good, and showing up for #29 felt obvious. Better chance for the pool, shared upside if it landed. Nothing came back. That is mining.
Receipt
Block #955,703 is the highlight. It is not the routine. Most parties end without a block. You size your orders, watch the log, go to bed anyway.
