14年未曾動過的比特幣錢包突然執行340萬美元轉賬，休眠鯨魚甦醒

一個裝有 50 BTC 的比特幣錢包，自該加密貨幣誕生之初以來一直未曾動過，在沉睡了 14 年多之後，突然煥發了生機

A Bitcoin wallet that had been untouched for over 14 years has suddenly sprung to life, executing a transfer of 50 BTC, currently valued at approximately $3.4 million.

一個 14 年來未曾動過的比特幣錢包突然煥發了生機，執行了 50 BTC 的轉賬，目前價值約 340 萬美元。

This transaction is particularly noteworthy due to the astronomical return on investment it showcases. When these coins were first mined in 2010, Bitcoin traded at a mere $0.08 per coin, making the original value of the coins around $2. Today’s valuation at $3.4 million represents a staggering gain of 169,359,000% for the early investor.

由於其所展示的天文數字的投資回報，這筆交易尤其值得注意。當這些硬幣於 2010 年首次開採時，比特幣的交易價格僅為每枚 0.08 美元，使得這些硬幣的原始價值約為 2 美元。今天的估值為 340 萬美元，對於早期投資者來說意味著 169,359,000% 的驚人收益。

This wallet awakening appears to be part of a larger trend of long-inactive Bitcoin holders suddenly becoming active. A few hours after this transaction, another instance was highlighted by Lookonchain where another long-dormant wallet, this one holding 399 BTC (worth around $27.21 million), transferred its balance after 12 years to cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp, possibly indicating a planned sale. To put this in perspective, this wallet's initial deposit was received in June 2012, at a time when Bitcoin traded at just $5.45.

這種錢包的覺醒似乎是長期不活躍的比特幣持有者突然變得活躍的更大趨勢的一部分。這筆交易發生幾個小時後，Lookonchain 強調了另一個例子，另一個長期休眠的錢包，持有399 BTC（價值約2721 萬美元），在12 年後將其餘額轉移到加密貨幣交易所Bitstamp，這可能表明有計劃出售。從這個角度來看，該錢包的初始存款是在 2012 年 6 月收到的，當時比特幣的交易價格僅為 5.45 美元。

This uptick in activity among dormant Bitcoin holders is not isolated. On October 21, blockchain intelligence firm Arkham Intelligence reported that an early Bitcoin miner from the Satoshi Nakamoto era sold some $9.6 million of Bitcoin in recent months.

休眠比特幣持有者的活動增加並不是孤立的。 10 月 21 日，區塊鏈情報公司 Arkham Intelligence 報告稱，中本聰時代的早期比特幣礦工近幾個月出售了約 960 萬美元的比特幣。

“A Bitcoin whale that mined its first coins on January 13, 2009, has sold some of the funds from its wallet,” the firm noted. This miner, who first acquired Bitcoin just days after the network's launch, has been progressively selling his holdings since mid-August, amounting to over $10 million worth of Bitcoin sold as of Friday.

該公司指出：“比特幣鯨魚於 2009 年 1 月 13 日開採了第一批比特幣，並已出售其錢包中的部分資金。”這位礦工在網路啟動幾天后首次購買了比特幣，自 8 月中旬以來一直在逐步出售其持有的比特幣，截至週五，已售出價值超過 1000 萬美元的比特幣。

However, not all experts are raising concerns. On Thursday, analysts at CryptoQuant provided reassurance regarding the behavior of Bitcoin whales, noting that their overall holdings remain strong.

然而，並非所有專家都表示擔憂。週四，CryptoQuant 的分析師對比特幣鯨魚的行為做出了保證，指出他們的整體持股仍然強勁。

“Whales’ holdings are at an all-time high. Whales currently hold around 670,000 BTC, which is the highest value ever,” analyst BaroVirtual from the firm reported. He emphasized that this accumulation phase often precedes major market moves, typically foreshadowing a significant price increase once whales start offloading some of their holdings.

「鯨魚的持有量處於歷史最高水準。鯨魚目前持有約 67 萬BTC，這是有史以​​來的最高價值，」該公司分析師 BaroVirtual 報告稱。他強調，這個累積階段通常先於重大市場走勢，通常預示著一旦鯨魚開始拋售部分資產，價格就會大幅上漲。

That said, fundamentals of the Bitcoin network remain strong. Mining hash rates have hit new highs, indicating increased mining difficulty and underscoring growing network security and the intrinsic value of Bitcoin. The surge in active addresses and rising on-chain transaction fees also indicate renewed interest and activity in the Bitcoin network, both of which are often associated with bullish phases in Bitcoin’s price cycle.

也就是說，比特幣網路的基本面依然強勁。挖礦哈希率創下新高，顯示挖礦難度增加，並突顯了網路安全性的提高和比特幣的內在價值。活躍地址的激增和鏈上交易費用的上漲也表明人們對比特幣網路的興趣和活動重新燃起，這兩者通常與比特幣價格週期的看漲階段有關。

With an accumulation phase in effect and a strong network foundation, analysts from the firm suggested that Bitcoin's recent whale activity could be the “calm before the storm,” hinting at an impending upward trend as long-term holders remain engaged.

該公司的分析師表示，隨著積累階段的生效和強大的網絡基礎，比特幣最近的鯨魚活動可能是“暴風雨前的平靜”，暗示隨著長期持有者繼續參與，比特幣即將出現上升趨勢。
