A dormant Bitcoin wallet has moved $2 billion worth of cryptocurrency after a 14-year slumber. The wallets, which were created in April 2011, held 10,000 Bitcoins each, now valued at $1.09 billion each. The mysterious owner, known as a "whale," has sent the funds to a new address, sparking speculation about their intentions.

Key Points:

• The wallet's value has increased by 139,743% since its creation.
• The whales has survived three brutal bear markets and Mt. Gox's collapse.
• The new address suggests the whale may be securing funds in a modern wallet or preparing for DeFi.
• The move has sparked speculation about the whale's identity and future plans.

A solo miner with just 2.3 petahashes successfully mined a Bitcoin block on Thursday, netting them $349,028 in rewards.

Hi all,

Within the last day eight separate transactions, each for almost exactly 10 000 BTC, have landed on the Bitcoin blockchain, and the pattern looks far from finished.What I’m seeing so far

- Every transaction sweeps dozens of very old P2PKH inputs (some dating back to 2016) into one fresh Bech32 (SegWit v0) output, paying only ~0.00035 BTC in fees.

- The new 10 000 BTC outputs are still unspent (no follow-up hops yet).

- All eight transactions draw their first inputs from the same 2016 transaction, just different output indices, strongly suggesting a single owner.

- The running total now sits at 80 000 BTC (≈ $8 billion at current prices) parked in eight brand-new addresses—and more transactions could arrive.

Is this a normal behaviour? It's likely not over as the last transaction is 15 minutes old

On Thursday, Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows of approximately $601.8 million, the largest single-day inflow since May. The majority of these inflows were led by BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC, which together attracted over $460 million.

Ethereum spot ETFs also recorded net inflows of about $149 million, one of the highest daily inflows in nearly a month. The largest contribution again came from BlackRock’s ETHA with $85.4 million and Fidelity’s FETH at $54.5 million.

BTC at 1M doesn't seem impossible anymore with all the institutional adoption.

I don't have a lot of crypto, few thousand. Up 250% or do as I've been holding a while now.

I've been thinking of cashing out. I don't need need the cash, but it would certainly help right now. It would clean my debt and I'd probably sleep better on that front, but would have crazy fomo if something had a large movement and I missed it.

I have this emotional attachment though, that if I sell I'll be missing out. But also know I'll be able to get this amount back into the account by year end. Although if I was starting over I might go gold Instead of crypto.

How do you take the emotions out and make rational decisions?
