Well, I declare! A Bitcoin whale, as dormant as a hibernating bear in winter, has finally stirred from its slumber after a whopping 14 and a half years. 🕰️ According to the sleuths at Lookonchain, this old codger of a wallet moved a cool $469.8 million in BTC, proving that patience is indeed a virtue—or at least a very profitable one. 😏
Back in the good ol’ days of January 15, 2011, this whale last made a transaction. Since then, Bitcoin has gone from a mere $0.393 to a staggering $118,561. That’s a gain of 30,168,093%—enough to make even the most stoic of investors do a jig. 🎉 The whale, bless its heart, accumulated this treasure over two days starting January 13, 2011. Talk about timing! ⏰
Before moving the big bucks, our whale friend conducted a test transaction for $218. You know, just to make sure the waters were safe. 🌊 Can’t blame the critter for being cautious after all these years.
Now, while this wallet was snoozing, it wasn’t entirely left in peace. There were whispers of dusting attacks—those pesky attempts to de-anonymize the owner by sending tiny amounts of Bitcoin. 🕵️♂️ But our whale, wise as it is, didn’t fall for those shenanigans.
This awakening comes hot on the heels of two other addresses making headlines by moving 80,000 BTC after a decade-long nap. Coinbase’s Conor Grogan speculated those might’ve been stolen goods. 🕶️ But our whale? Oh, it’s as clean as a whistle—or so we’re led to believe.
Meanwhile, Santiment tells us that Bitcoin whales holding over 1,000 BTC barely flinched this week, despite a slight dip in BTC’s price. Guess they’re all waiting for their moment to wake up and shake things up. 🌊
