-- A major hodler transferred $177 million worth of bitcoins received in 2010.
-- Some experts have indicated that he has come out of hibernation before.
-- According to their data, the whale has moved a total of 9,000 $BTC
since 2010.
An unknown large hodler transferred 2,000 #BTC☀ ($177.6 million at the current exchange rate) on the night of November 15, 2024. He received these assets as a reward for mining in 2010.
On-chain data shows that the user has accumulated assets from a variety of P2PKH addresses. They were credited to the 3AE1 wallet, after which they were sequentially distributed among dozens of other accounts.
In this regard, it seems unlikely that we are talking about the sale of assets. But if this is the case, then Hodler's net profit was more than $177 million.
He received his assets as a reward for mining in 2010, when the rate of the first cryptocurrency was at $ 0.067.
At the time of writing, bitcoin is trading at $88,681. The whale became more active against the background of the recent rally of the asset, during which it broke through the $93,000 level.
Some observers have stated that this is the first transaction of this whale in more than 14 years. However, in the edition Bitcoin.com News indicated that he conducted at least several transfers in 2024.
Their conclusions are based on the fact that Hodler uses the same scheme with the accumulation of funds from P2PKH addresses. According to the publication, since 2010, the whale has moved about 9,000 BTC.
