🚀🚀 Bitcoin enthusiasts, buckle up! A long-dormant Bitcoin whale has just woken up from a 5.5-year slumber, transferring a whopping 8,000 BTC (valued at $536.5 million) from Coinbase cold storage! 🐳💰

This is not a one-off event, folks! We're seeing a trend of long-term dormant Bitcoin wallets springing back to life. This usually happens when investors and old miners decide to sell their assets for profits. 💼💸

This particular wallet, which had been inactive for over five years, transferred its massive stash on June 11. The Bitcoin was then moved to a Binance Deposit address, with a transaction fee of just $108. 🔄💼

Here's a fun fact: this wallet had been receiving funds in small chunks of 200 BTC between October and December 2018. With Bitcoin now priced at over $67,409, this transfer represents a +1,700% increase in value from the average acquisition price of $3,750 in 2018. Talk about a good investment! 📈💰

But wait, there's more! This isn't the first time a long-term dormant Bitcoin address has woken up. Back in April, a decade-long dormant Bitcoin whale moved about 246 BTC, selling at over 230,000% return on investment. 🚀🐳

Old miners are also joining the party, with one miner's wallet, dormant for over 14 years, recently moving about 2,000 BTC received as mining rewards in 2010. The value of this stash had surged from a few hundred dollars to $140 million! 🎉💰

On average, one dormant wallet has been waking up every month. A recent report indicated that about 1.8 million Bitcoin addresses have remained inactive for over a decade. Some may be lost forever due to forgotten passphrases. But who knows, maybe your long-lost Bitcoin wallet could be next! 🎁🔑
