An old Bitcoin-Walvis that woke up for the first time in 14 years earlier this month, again achieves the headlines with another BTC transfer of several billions.
About 10 days ago, two Bitcoin addresses, each of which had 10,000 BTC, were emptied each within a few minutes on July 4.
The two portfolios had received their respective Bitcoin on 3 April 2011 when BTC acted at $ 0.78 each.
Subsequently, last week, Coinbase -director Conor Grogan suggested that the whale portfolios could possibly be linked to a hack after he had discovered that one of the wallet seems to have done a test transaction on the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) network only a few hours before the large relocation was tried to remain.
According to pseudonymous crypto analyst Satoshi StackerOne of the two whales is busy again and moves almost $ 5 billion in BTC to new portfolios.
“The 80,000 BTC -Walvis has moved 40,000 BTC worth around $ 4.7 billion to new addresses.
About $ 2 billion of that BTC was then transferred to centralized fairs, probably being sold.
Do you buy this dip? “
While the portfolios were in sleep since April 2011, they also received trace amounts from Bitcoin during the intervening period, possibly as a result of declaration attacks that were performed to try to sniff the entities behind the addresses. Stoff attacks are usually carried out by researchers, law enforcement officials or criminals.
The phenomenon of long-term addresses suddenly get active Spurs-Media interest because of their potential link to the pseudonym of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, which has been a mystery for more than one and a half decades since the crypto-king was introduced in the world.
Bitcoin acts for $ 117,195 at the time of writing, a decrease of 2.2% in the day.
