Satoshi-Era Whale Transfers 2,000 BTC After 14 Years of Dormancy

According to cryptocurrency analytics platform Lookonchain, a Satoshi-era Bitcoin miner recently transferred 2,000 BTC (roughly $180 million) after 14 years of inactivity. As noted by Lookonchain, the Bitcoin fortune was mined all the way back in 2010. In 2010, the leading cryptocurrency by market capitalization was in its infancy. Bitcoin Market, the very first Bitcoin exchange, debuted in February 2010. A few months later, miner Laszlo Hanyecz famously made the very first Bitcoin purchase by paying 10,000 BTC ($896 million at current prices) for two pizzas.
