Bitcoin’s stability above the $69K mark has caught attention as a wallet dormant since 2015 suddenly made waves on the blockchain.

This individual recently moved a staggering 2,352.62 bitcoins valued at over $163 million, breaking their silence after more than eight years. The transfer was executed through 80 distinct transactions, each originating from wallets established in 2015.

These wallets had lain inactive for over eight years until March 10, 2024, when they sprang into action. Most of the bitcoins came from wallets created in the latter half of 2015, a period when bitcoin was navigating through a prolonged downturn following the peak prices of 2013. At that time, a single bitcoin was valued at $238, significantly less than its current value of $163 million.

The transferred bitcoins, all originating from Pay-to-Public-Key-Hash (P2PKH) addresses, were merged into over 17 different Bech32 addresses. This significant movement from 2015 follows other notable transactions, including the transfer of 3,000 bitcoins from 2010, which were mined almost 14 years prior and moved for the first time last week.

While some steadfast holders continue to retain their assets, many large-scale investors are now mobilizing their coins for the first time in years, coinciding with the peak prices of Bitcoin.
