A bitcoin BTC $82,780.88 wallet, dormant since 2013, came back to life On Sunday, the wallet moved all 411.45 of its BTC to a new address, according to blockchain data from Arkham Intelligence. At today’s price of about $82,600 per coin, that stash is worth roughly $34 million. When the owner first acquired those coins, the entire balance was worth just $54,000. This awakening is part of a broader trend of historic supply shifting wallets this month. Just a day prior, two other wallets dormant for over a decade moved a combined 417 Bitcoin, and the week before, a large whale wallet static since the pre-Covid crash migrated its funds. The pattern is highly reminiscent of 2025, when isolated mega-whales repeatedly woke up from a prolonged slumber.
