SpiderPool mines an empty block at Bitcoin block height 954,352

CoinFeed June 22 news, according to Crypto.news, Bitcoin mined an empty block at height 954,352 on June 19, containing only the Coinbase transaction (miner reward) and no user transactions. The block was mined by SpiderPool, with an interval of about 62 seconds from the previous block. The rapid block interval may have caused miners to use only Coinbase-based templates for mining before a more complete transaction template reached the mining hardware, which can result in a valid empty block. Empty blocks have occurred in Bitcoin's history but are now relatively rare. Mining pools may send empty templates because they are smaller and transmit faster, but at the cost of forgoing transaction fee revenue from that block. A single empty block does not indicate a problem with the Bitcoin network and does not involve a breach of consensus rules.
