Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this block show 0 difficulty?

Ethereum transitioned to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) in 2022, eliminating mining difficulty calculations present in Proof-of-Work systems.

How are miner rewards calculated post-Merge?

Validators earn:

  1. Base issuance (currently ~0.02 ETH/block)
  2. Priority fees from transactions
  3. MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) opportunities

What does "Internal Value" represent?

This indicates the USD equivalent of all ETH moved in the block at mining time ($125,457), differing from current market value.
