Bitcoin Whale Moves $34M After 13 Years Dormant
A Bitcoin wallet dormant since 2013 reportedly transferred 411.45 BTC, valued at approximately $34 million, to a new SegWit address on October 18, 2026.
- Original purchase: most of the Bitcoin was reportedly acquired in 2013, when BTC traded around $131.
- Estimated initial investment: approximately $54,000.
- Transaction fee: just 337 satoshis.
- Destination: a new SegWit address.
- No exchange deposit reported: the coins have not been identified as moving to a cryptocurrency exchange. Analysts suggest the transfer may reflect an upgrade in wallet security or custody rather than an immediate sale.
The owner's identity and intentions remain unknown. Moving Bitcoin does not necessarily mean selling it.
Over 600× growth in value. Thirteen years of holding. One transaction.
