This means where the mined block came from?

Wow, that's new. I'm often looking at that globe and I have never seen this before.

Is this the first block, not found in US or Europe?

It about time.


Of course it could also just be a very well connected node.

This means where the mined block came from?

No, this means which Node has as first reported that block to blockchain.info .

But the probability, that the block was found there is very high.

That's in Hong Kong, which is still quite a free trade zone.

There's nothing to surprise. There are many miners in China and one of the most famous FPGA designer is Chinese.

That means nothing. Most people are pool mining and you never know where they are
