whales took action when the price rose to $63,000 again. Current information shows that many mining wallets that have been inactive for more than 15.5 years are transferring Bitcoin. In particular, on September 20, 5 different mining wallets transferred 250 BTC worth a total of $15.9 million.
These wallets received a mining reward of 50 BTC per block worth $3.18 million in 2009.
5 Bitcoin Wallets Were Active on the Same Day
One of the 5 wallets in question transferred 50 BTC worth $3.19 million obtained from mining to different addresses after being inactive for exactly 15.6 years. This wallet transferred the 50 BTC it earned from mining on January 30, 2009 to new wallets with this transaction.
It was stated that 50 BTC was transferred in each transaction and these assets were sent to new addresses. However, it is not yet clear whether all of these wallets belong to the same person or organization.
Will Bitcoin Miners Sell?
While it remains unclear what the purpose of these miners' transfers is, two possibilities stand out: selling or taking security measures. Similar transfers have been seen before and usually either sales were made or security was increased by simply switching to new wallets.
It has been reported that no transfers have been made from these new wallets to any cryptocurrency exchanges so far.
Bitcoin, which has increased by 2% in the last 24 hours, is trading at $61,984 at the time of writing.
