Transfer of 56 million dollars worth of Bitcoin from old whale wallets

In recent days, a new wave of movements of old Bitcoins has been recorded on the network. Wallets dating from 2012 to 2017 have transferred a total of 471.8678 Bitcoins, with an approximate value of 56.39 million dollars.

This event follows a recent report about the sudden activation of more than 101,000 Bitcoins that had been dormant since 2011 to 2017, making July one of the busiest periods for the awakening of old assets.

Among these, a wallet created on April 8, 2013, transferred 14.55 Bitcoins worth about 1.7 million dollars for the first time after 12 years and 3 months. Also, another wallet created just two days later moved 181 Bitcoins valued at around 21.6 million dollars.

Other notable cases include the transfer of 90 Bitcoins worth 10.7 million dollars from a wallet dating back to October 2013, as well as the movement of 1 Bitcoin after 11 years and 6 months by an old holder.

Interestingly, five wallets created on February 2, 2012, each transferred 20 Bitcoins; at that time, Bitcoin was valued at only 6.09 dollars, and now their total value is about 11.9 million dollars.
