A crypto legend that had been dormant for 14 years suddenly awakened.
Just 4 hours ago, a mysterious address starting with 1Au1uZ unexpectedly transferred 1,000 bitcoins, valued at nearly $90 million. This wasn’t an ordinary transaction—it was a migration of wealth across time.
On-chain data tracking platforms captured the trajectory of this unusual movement. The most astonishing detail lies deep in history: when these coins were first received 14 years ago, their total value was just $3,883. That’s right—at that time, each bitcoin was worth only $3.88, about the price of a Starbucks coffee.
From under $4 to nearly $90,000 today, a 23,000x return has been quietly sitting in the wallet. The holder didn’t cash out during the 2017 bull run, nor during the frenzy of 2021, and even held on through countless crashes and doubts. Now, with this sudden transfer, are they preparing to cash out and exit, or just moving to a safer vault?
The actions of such early participants often serve as a barometer for market sentiment. After all, the cost basis speaks volumes about who the true believers and speculators are.

Damn, 23,000x? How hard must it have been for this guy to hold back? He didn’t even sell in 2017.

Damn, a diamond hand from 2014 just woke up. This might mean a sell-off is coming.
This guy is truly committed to his beliefs. Not many people can hold from $3.8 all the way to $90,000.
What's the deal with the sudden transfer? Is it cashing out or just moving to a cold wallet? Don't keep us in suspense.
Managing to hold through a 23,000x increase without selling—his mental fortitude is insane.

Damn, what a move—23,000x straight to the moon, and I'm still out here grocery shopping.

Damn, this guy really has diamond hands. He didn’t move a single coin for 10 years, and now he just transferred $90 million at once. I really need to reflect on my own trading decisions.

Damn, this guy must sleep so soundly, hasn't moved for 14 years.
Is it true belief or is he getting ready to dump?
Now some people are going to panic.
There aren’t many OGs left with more than 3 coins in hand.
Those who know the game are all watching where this transfer goes next.

Damn, I missed it again... Seriously, this guy held for 14 years before I even saw it, and I'm still freaking out over whether or not to buy.
