【Shocking】The giant whale that had been dormant for four years awakens! 1,074 WBTC holders cash out $74.89 million in a single transaction! Is it a signal to escape the peak or a victorious retreat?
Main text:
🚨 A major event has suddenly occurred on-chain! A 'Bitcoin giant whale' that had been silent for a full four years suddenly surfaces, stirring up huge waves!
🐋 According to on-chain detective @ai_9684xtpa's in-depth tracking:
📍 A mysterious address quietly accumulated **1,074 WBTC** during the Bitcoin low period in 2021 (average price only $10,708), with a total value of about $11.5 million at that time.
📍 For the next **1,460 days, this address remained completely still**, regardless of bull and bear market fluctuations, truly exemplifying the ultimate 'Buddhist-style holding'.
💥 However, just in the past three days, the whale suddenly took action! In a flash, it sold **700 WBTC**, cashing out **$82.4 million** (average price $117,697)!
💰 This single operation resulted in an astonishing profit:
🔥 $74.89 million USD! (This is a **6.5 times** return on the initial principal!)
📉 Currently, the whale has **already sold off more than half of the 'four-year-old ammunition'**, and still holds **800 WBTC** (valued at nearly 100 million USD).
Soul-searching question:
The ultimate winner of 'Time's Friends': After four years of perseverance, it has resulted in nearly 75 million USD in profits! This is the most hardcore annotation of the 'long-term holding (HODL)' strategy. While countless people are chasing highs and cutting losses, the real whales become rich in silence.
Precise timing? Or market signal? Choosing to decisively reduce half of its position at the historic high level of BTC ($117,000), does it believe that a temporary peak has been reached? Is it a realization of profits to improve life? Or does it still have confidence in the future market (after all, it still holds 800 WBTC)?
Indications of whale movements: Large-scale sell-offs by such early low-cost whales have traditionally been seen as potential market 'coolants' or 'top signals'. Will history repeat itself this time?
What would you do? If you were this whale, having held for four years and earned 6.5 times, would you choose to cash out completely for safety, or partially take profits like it did and retain the majority? Or perhaps… continue to go ALL IN?
