Two Bitcoin addresses dormant for 16.2 years became active within minutes of each other on November 13, each transferring 50 BTC. The total value of the transferred bitcoin was approximately $6.89 million, although these tokens were worth just $3 in 2010. Whale Alert estimates that the holdings match the 50 BTC rewards paid to miners in Bitcoin’s early years, before the first halving in November 2012. The owners of the wallets remain unknown, and there is no confirmation that they belong to Satoshi Nakamoto. These activations follow several other movements from old addresses, including one holding 170 BTC, another holding 500 BTC, and two more containing 248 and 167 BTC, respectively.
