Two Bitcoin wallets dormant since 2010 suddenly moved 100 BTC worth roughly $6.9 million, reviving early mining rewards after more than 16 years.

  • Each address transferred 50 BTC, valued near $3.44 million.
  • The coins were mined in September 2010, when each reward was worth about $3.
  • A follow-up transaction combined both balances, hinting at coordinated control; the owner and intent remain unknown.

LaunchBar takeaway: this is not automatically a sell signal. The coins may be heading to an OTC desk—or simply into fresh cold storage. Traders should watch destination wallets and exchange inflows before chasing ancient-whale FUD.
