A Bitcoin wallet from the Satoshi era, dating back to 2010, recently became active after 14 years, transferring 50 Bitcoin to the Binance exchange. This era, spanning from 2009 to 2011, marked the time when Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, was engaged in online forums. The wallet, associated with a BTC miner who earned 50 BTC in July 2010, contains some of the earliest mined Bitcoin when the reward per block was 50 BTC. Despite the current reward dropping to 3.125 BTC, the miner received the 50 BTC when Bitcoin was valued at $0.05. The movement of crypto to centralized exchanges, like Binance, is often viewed as bearish, indicating potential asset selling. The rise of industrial-scale Bitcoin mining has intensified competition, making it challenging for individual miners to succeed. This trend has led to the awakening of dormant wallets from the Satoshi era, reflecting the evolving landscape of cryptocurrency mining and trading.
