A dormant Bitcoin whale activates and sells 80,000 coins after 14 years of holding them for $9.5 billion
A dormant Bitcoin whale has come back to life after 14 years, selling over 80,000 Bitcoin worth more than $9.5 billion. The wallet, which has been inactive since 2011, began moving its holdings in early July 2025, sending large amounts to Galaxy Digital and then to trading platforms like Binance and Bybit.
This holding dates back to 2011 when the whale bought Bitcoin at a price of approximately $0.78 per coin, with a total investment of no more than $132,000, resulting in an extraordinary return of over 72,000 times.
The sudden activity of this dormant whale has sparked speculation about a possible connection to the figure of Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, but no confirmed evidence has been presented so far.
This massive move has redirected market attention toward alternative currencies, especially with Ethereum recording an 8% increase over 24 hours, supported by notable liquidity movements from large wallets that withdrew massive amounts of Ethereum from trading platforms.
Estimates suggest that part of the proceeds from the Bitcoin sale may go toward investing in alternative currencies, contributing to positive momentum in the market during this period.
