According to Odaily, a previously dormant Ethereum mining address has been activated after 8.9 years of inactivity. The address, which was involved in the Ethereum Initial Coin Offering (ICO), contains 6000 ETH, equivalent to 21,962,887 US dollars. The activation of the address was detected by Whale Alert, a blockchain monitoring service, at 2:10:11 Beijing time. The sudden activation of such a long-dormant address has sparked interest in the cryptocurrency community, as it could potentially impact the Ethereum market. However, the reasons behind the activation and the potential implications remain unclear.
