This week, the cryptocurrency community was stirred by rumors surrounding two Bitcoin blocks that were mined without a visible pool tag. Speculation ran rampant, with many believing that a solo miner had achieved a significant milestone. However, based on the data provided in the document, the truth behind these blocks has now been revealed.

Blocks 932129 and 932167, which sparked the excitement, were actually mined by NiceHash as part of internal testing for a new product.

Разъяснение CEO NiceHash

CEO Sasa Coh clarified that the confusion stemmed from the way block metadata was displayed, rather than any deliberate attempt to hide the mining pool's identity.
