In the last two years, we’ve seen a significant increase in the movement of Bitcoin that had been dormant for over 7 years, coins often considered lost or untouchable.

In 2024, over 255,000 BTC were reactivated.

And in 2025, with several months still ahead, we’re already past 215,000 BTC.

But the trend goes deeper than total volume.

📊 Average monthly volume has surged from 4.9K BTC in 2023 to 30.7K BTC in 2025.

📈 Average size per transaction has risen from 162 BTC to over 1,000 BTC.

These are no longer scattered retail moves, they’re coordinated reallocations of high volume capital.

In this cycle, the price is just the surface.

What’s really changing is who holds the future.
