Ancient Bitcoin whale awakens: After 13 years of silence, transfers 909 BTC, with a rise of over 13,900 times

Abstract generation in progress

【Blockchain Rhythm】A Bitcoin whale that had been dormant for 13 years suddenly awakens. Recently, on-chain monitoring data showed that a certain ancient address transferred 909.38 BTC to a brand new wallet today, worth approximately $84.62 million in fiat currency.

The story of this wallet is even more incredible. When it first received this batch of BTC 13 years ago, the price was less than $7 per coin. And now? It has risen to nearly $100,000 per coin. A simple calculation shows that the initial investment was less than $7,000, and now it’s worth nearly $90 million. The increase is nearly 13,900 times.

Such long-dormant whales suddenly becoming active often attract market attention. Are they preparing to sell or simply migrating assets? The subsequent movements are worth watching.

Holy shit, this guy hasn't touched his wallet since 2013, and now he's waking up to 90 million. I'm completely stunned. How ruthless is that? Holding coins for 13 years without wavering. Is he about to dump or what? This is a critical moment. Truly a textbook example of lying flat and winning. I'm still buying at the low now, but I feel like I'm a hundred years late. If he dumps, it would be disastrous. But judging by his style, he probably won't lose his mind. In my opinion, just hold on to it like this, and hold for another 13 years. I bet this number will scare the hell out of people.

This guy spent $7 to buy Bitcoin 13 years ago, and now he's a 90 millionaire. I'm still working my ass off.

Damn, how deep does this guy sleep? He hasn't moved since 2013, and now he's awake with 90 million. I'm stunned. If I had known earlier, I would have gone all in. It's too late to say that now. Wait, is this guy about to dump? Or just moving to a different wallet? Please, don't sell. How is this even possible? People who had coins during the 7 yuan era are now like gods. If there’s any movement in these 909 coins, the market might explode. Really? When these dormant accounts become active, I get nervous. This kind of increase—no one would believe it when you say it. It’s just unbelievable.

How come I’ve never had such luck in my life... Bought it 13 years ago for 7 yuan, now it's 90 million. I'm still losing money in blind boxes.

Wow, this guy hasn't touched his wallet since 2013, and he's so aggressive just waking up? Wait, is it really just a migration? It feels a bit risky... 90 million just transferred out like that, I'm losing my mind. Bought for 7 yuan 13 years ago, thinking back, how many people looked down on that back then. Is he going to dump the market or what? Let's wait and see what happens next.
