On June 19, 2026, SpiderPool mined Bitcoin block 954,352 containing only the mandatory coinbase transaction and no user transactions, making it almost empty at 0.03% capacity. This tactic, used to avoid delays during transaction validation, is part of a pattern where SpiderPool consistently mines more empty blocks than average, reportedly over 5% of its blocks. While empty blocks reduce transaction throughput, they still contribute to network security by extending the blockchain. The practice highlights ongoing debates about mining efficiency and network performance as pools balance speed and transaction inclusion.
