For fun: the lowest block hash yet

[bitspill]

What about the hashes with the most zeros anywhere in the hash?

Is a hash of *all* 0s possible?

Current block with the most number of 0's (anywhere, not just leading) in the hash:

I listed the one with the most (at that time) already

Some visualisations and explanations of highest difficulty / smallest blockhashes:

I thought this graph...

...was actually more interesting  Any chance you could plot one that hasn't been binned?

[organofcorti]

I thought this graph...

...was actually more interesting  Any chance you could plot one that hasn't been binned?

Sure - but then you just get a lot of overplotting. The colour represents the number of blocks in each bin, so unbinned you'd just  have a scatter plot that was solid black at the bottom and black dots at the top. If I make each point translucent, you might see a bit more detail. Maybe it's just the colours that put you off?

[organofcorti]

This is unbinned with very small, slightly translucent points:

[TheRealSteve]

Yep, that's it.  I thought I noticed some sort of patterning in the color coded one earlier, looks like it's more pronounced in this - I suspect that's just the graphing package and things tricking my eyes, or the ECDF would have shown them as well.  Nice work as always

Randomness can be clumpy - if it was all evenly spaced, it wouldn't be random. Humans are very good at pattern recognition, but it's easy to squeeze clumpy randomness into a pattern.

or the ECDF would have shown them as well

Maybe, but the CDF ignores changes over time. If there were strange patterns from time to time,  it might not show up in the CDF / PDF, if the patterns balanced out.

Nice work as always

Cheers!

Randomness can be clumpy - if it was all evenly spaced, it wouldn't be random.

Just to show what I was seeing - which does go a bit beyond clumping:

If you squint just right and convince your brain that it's there, then you can somewhat see it in the color coded one as well.

But you can see that in the b/w version it's almost certainly just the filtering of samples in the rasterized output.

Well ... it's not actually random, it's only pseudo random
Given enough data over millions of years it would probably show some artifacts of the pseudo randomness.

Hurray trivia.

Block 368527 is also the least lucky block hash - which is to say it is the luckiest (lowest hash so far), but it was also the lowest fraction of the target, so the difficulty could have been much higher and it would have still been valid.
Block 331816, in those terms, was the luckiest; clocking in 'just barely' under the target:

00000000000000001b48610000000395e67ff70a0effd0718099cc0000000000 : target
00000000000000001b48534ff39bc165477e3b5459b05679bdcf8ce2a3927fe7 : hash

Actually, the above may not be very precise due to potential conversion issues and big number handling.  The next four contenders are blocks 270605, 50249, 128228 and 316072

[kano]

I keep a dump of the full chain (with a script that simply adds to it by calling bitcoin-cli with one addition, the timestamp converted)
So the best 42 with a few more details:

Block 331816, in those terms, was the luckiest; clocking in 'just barely' under the target:

00000000000000001b48610000000395e67ff70a0effd0718099cc0000000000 : target
00000000000000001b48534ff39bc165477e3b5459b05679bdcf8ce2a3927fe7 : hash

Actually, the above may not be very precise due to potential conversion issues and big number handling.  The next four contenders are blocks 270605, 50249, 128228 and 316072

Just an FYI: the "bits" parameter of block 331816 is 0x181b4861.  This value represents the true target and unpacks as

	0x0.1b4861 * 0x1000x18
=	0x1b4861 * 0x1042
=	0x1b4861000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

I keep a dump of the full chain (with a script that simply adds to it by calling bitcoin-cli with one addition, the timestamp converted)

Very cool!

I'd be curious to see grep '000000UTC' blocks.all myself.

Very cool!

I'd be curious to see grep '000000UTC' blocks.all myself.

Well yeah but there is of course the issue that the block timestamp is far from accurate.
It's simply the timestamp put in the header before hashing it, it doesn't need to be very accurate and can be 7200 seconds (2hrs) ahead in time.
