An anonymous investor surprised the market by moving about 3,000 bitcoins that had been inactive since 2015. The transaction, recorded on August 6, 2025, represents an estimated wealth of over R$ 1.9 billion, considering the current exchange rate of the cryptocurrency.
The movement drew attention due to the long inactivity of the assets, which remained untouched for a decade. It is still unclear whether the holder's intention is to sell the coins or simply transfer them to a new wallet for security reasons.
Experts point out that movements of this scale can generate expectations in the market, but do not always result in immediate selling pressure. The episode reinforces how large investors — known as 'whales' — can impact the sentiment of bitcoin traders, even without directly altering the supply.
