Dormant Bitcoin Wallets Move After 13 Years

Two Bitcoin wallets that have remained inactive for nearly 13 years have recently shown signs of activity. The wallets, which hold a combined total of 1,346 BTC valued at approximately $115 million, executed a small test transaction. The transaction involved sending 0.0005 BTC, worth about $43, which suggests wallet management or potential preparation for a sale.

The Bitcoin holdings were acquired at a reported price of $178 per BTC, making their initial value around $240,000. Today, the estimated value of the holdings is about 479 times that original amount. However, the test transfer does not confirm whether any of the BTC has been sold.
