Someone moved over $11 million worth of Bitcoin that has sat idle in wallets since it was mined in 2010.
The 1,000 Bitcoin—today worth $11,425,000—moved to one address. The move was flagged by Kirill K, a professional cryptocurrency trader, on LinkedIn.
The Bitcoin was mined back in September 2010, when Bitcoin was less than two years old and worth less than 10 cents per coin. Back then, the cryptocurrency was virtually unheard of and very cheap to mine—all the Bitcoin moved today was worth less than $100 in 2010.
The mysterious holder of the “Satoshi era” coins would make an insane lottery-like profit if they sold the coins today.
“Satoshi era” Bitcoin refers to coins mined when Bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, was still communicating with the crypto world. Nobody's heard from Nakamoto since 2010 and his identity is still a complete mystery. Some believe—perhaps falsely—that whoever moved the coins must have been part of Nakamoto's inner circle.
Someone just moved 50 Satoshi-era Bitcoins, today worth $527,120, to the hot wallet of cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex. The 50 Bitcoin was mined back in May 2010, when Bitcoin was around one-and-a-half years old. The owner has held onto those coins ever since and waited until last night to move them to the cryptocurrency exchange. The move was picked up by BTCparser, a Telegram bot that trawls through Bitcoin transactions. If the owner of those 50 Bitcoins sold the entire stash on Bitfinex, t...
But why would someone move this Bitcoin now? Head of quant strategy at crypto firm Ikigai Asset Management, Hans Hauge, wrote on LinkedIn that “old miners have to be careful about how they move so as to not spook the market.”
But he added that $11 million wouldn’t really “move the needle much in either direction” when billions of Bitcoin shuffle around wallets each day.

Bitcoin was flat Tuesday after new inflation data showed price growth in the U.S. held steady in April, offering no clear relief for markets watching the Federal Reserve’s next move. At the same time, Washington and Beijing agreed Monday to slash some of the harshest tariffs imposed this year, another curveball for forecasters trying to read inflation’s path forward. The consumer price index, a broad gauge of goods and services costs across the U.S. economy, rose 0.2% in April on a seasonally ad...
Decentralized protocol Curve Finance confirmed Tuesday that its front-end website was compromised, with attackers redirecting users to a fake site. "The DNS incident involving Curve Finance reflects a broader issue across the industry," the project told Decrypt. "In recent weeks, there has been a noticeable increase in attacks targeting the infrastructure of various crypto projects." The exploit redirected traffic to a malicious IP, the protocol said on social media. "User funds are safe. Curve...
Trump Media & Technology Group’s social media platform, Truth Social, denied reports on Tuesday that it is planning a meme coin, following online speculation that a launch was imminent. "There’s no truth whatsoever about Truth Social launching a meme coin. Don’t be fooled by false information people are circulating," Donald Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., posted on X. The denial came after crypto trader Ran Neuner claimed in a now widely shared post that Truth Social would roll out a meme...
