On-chain data shows Bitcoin dormant since 15.3 years ago has just been moved. Here\u2019s whether the transactions are related to BTC\u2019s creator.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin From Satoshi\u2019s Era Has Been Involved In Two Transfers Today<\/h2>\n

According to data from the cryptocurrency transaction tracker service Whale Alert<\/a>, two transfers involving super old tokens have been spotted on the Bitcoin blockchain in the past day.<\/p>\n

Both of these transactions were executed simultaneously and involved miner wallets that had been dormant since mining<\/a> on April 26th, 2010, more than 15 years ago.<\/p>\n

Below are the details related to one of the moves.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

As is visible, this transaction involved three miner wallets who each had 50 BTC. When these wallets mined the coins, they were worth around $0.01 each, meaning that each 50 BTC stack was equivalent to just $0.5. Today, its value has grown to a whopping $5.9 million.<\/p>\n

The other transfer was also quite similar, except it involved two wallets instead of three, with both once again moving the 50 BTC that they mined 15.3 years ago. Given the similarity and the simultaneous execution, the same entity is likely behind the moves. That said, the receiving wallet has been different between the two transactions.<\/p>\n

\"Bitcoin<\/p>\n

Given that these wallets were active in 2010, they would belong to Bitcoin\u2019s earliest miners. One miner that comes to everyone\u2019s mind when thinking of that era is, of course, Satoshi Nakamato<\/a>, BTC\u2019s pseudonymous creator.<\/p>\n

Satoshi started mining at the network\u2019s genesis and their activity has partially been reconstructed from patterns found in blockchain data. \u201cAccording to our research the two 50 BTC dormant address transactions earlier today were mined at the end of the period during which Satoshi was active (until around block 54,316),\u201d explains Whale Alert.<\/p>\n

So, were the mining wallets involved in the latest two transactions associated in any way to BTC\u2019s creator? According to the analytics firm, the answer seems to be no: \u201cit is very unlikely the blocks were mined by Satoshi.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whoever was behind the wallets likely lost access to them at some point. Coins that reach a super old age usually only do so by accident, as even the hardest of diamond hands<\/a> tend to crack eventually. These ancient addresses breaking their silence now were probably only recently rediscovered.<\/p>\n

BTC Price<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin has so far shown no signs of its consolidation phase ending as its price is still trading around the $118,500 mark, which is similar to where it was at a couple of weeks ago.<\/p>\n
