Recently, the blockchain world detected a market-shaking transaction: an early Bitcoin network miner transferred 2,000 BTC for the first time in over 15 years, worth approximately $181 million at current market prices. This massive asset originated from block rewards mined in 2010, stored long-term in 40 ancient P2PK addresses, and was eventually consolidated and sent to a major CEX. On-chain analysis experts pointed out that this is the largest "Satoshi era" whale activity since November 2024. Such holders typically act at critical market turning points. Although this transfer is widely interpreted as a potential sell signal, the Bitcoin market has shown remarkable depth and resilience, with prices not experiencing a structural decline. This fully validates the current market liquidity and also marks Bitcoin's transition from a high-volatility asset to a mature, stable macro asset class.

In 2025, as Bitcoin's price broke through $100,000 and hit a record high of $126,000, the dormant "whales" of Bitcoin began an epic collective action. On-chain data shows that these early investors, holding over 1,000 BTC and some having been dormant for 10 to 14 years, launched multiple rounds of large-scale sell-offs this year, totaling hundreds of billions of dollars. Among them, a mysterious transaction from the "Satoshi era" transferred 80,000 BTC in a single move, cashing out approximately $9 billion. This whale activity, dubbed the "Great Reallocation" by analysts, is counteracting the new demand from spot ETFs and the asset sheets of listed companies, profoundly reshaping the structure of Bitcoin holders and potentially indicating that the traditional four-year market cycle is undergoing a fundamental change.

The discovery of an XRP wallet labeled "NotSatoshi" sparked community speculation about Bitcoin's creator, only to be debunked by Ripple's CTO David Schwartz, who clarified it was a long-standing joke. This incident highlights the ongoing mystery surrounding Satoshi Nakamoto.
