Today (July 4, 2025), I want to talk about something exhilarating—a Bitcoin 'ancient giant whale' that has been dormant for 14 years suddenly awakens.

Who is this 'ancient giant whale'?

This giant whale started hoarding Bitcoin back in 2011, holding a total of 80,000 BTC! You have to understand, Bitcoin was just getting started in 2011, with a pitifully low price; those 80,000 BTC were worth only a few thousand dollars at the time. And now? At the current price (about $108,000 each), this wealth has skyrocketed to $8.68 billion! The return on investment is astronomical—over ten thousand times in 14 years, a true investment myth of the century! This giant whale has been quite active recently.

In the past half hour, he transferred 40,000 BTC in batches to four new addresses, moving a total of $5.45 billion worth of tokens today! Even more astonishing, his transaction records show that the mining reward addresses from 14 years ago are being activated one after another, almost like going through historical accounts.


Could it be a miner big shot from 2011?

Insider rumors suggest that this giant whale is likely an early miner from 2011. At that time, the barriers to mining were low, hardware was simple, and if luck was on your side, you could mine a ton of BTC. He reportedly consolidated 180 mining reward blocks, and at his peak, even had a wallet with 200,000 BTC (worth $22 billion), placing him among the top five wallets in Bitcoin history! Just think about it; in 2011, Mt. Gox had just been established, and Bitcoin China had to wait another two months. This guy was already making moves, incredibly impressive!


Why wake up now?

Why did this giant whale suddenly transfer so much BTC? People in the circle speculate a few possibilities:

Dividing inheritance? After 14 years, perhaps this big shot wants to share his wealth with family or heirs.

Over-the-counter trading? Selling so much BTC directly on exchanges would definitely crash the market, so he might be quietly handling it through OTC (over-the-counter) trades.

Strategic adjustment? Perhaps he wants to move funds to other investments or exchange them for other cryptocurrencies.

Satoshi Nakamoto rumors? Haha, some people are letting their imaginations run wild, suspecting this is Satoshi's affiliated wallet, but that's purely entertainment gossip with a very low probability.


What impact does it have on the market?

I must remind everyone that the movements of such whales have a significant impact on the market. 80,000 BTC accounts for 0.4% of the total Bitcoin supply; if he starts selling, the price could fluctuate. However, as of now, he is just transferring, not selling directly, so the market remains relatively stable in the short term. Nonetheless, everyone should stay alert, manage risks, and not get swept away by the 'tsunami' of these big players! I find this situation quite impactful.

Back in 2011, I was still in school and had never heard of Bitcoin. Yet this giant whale seized the opportunities of the times, becoming a legend in the crypto world through early insight and persistence. Honestly, hearing stories like this makes me both emotional and envious, but it also reminds us: the cryptocurrency market has many opportunities, but the risks are high, so investments should be made within one's means.
