Two bitcoin addresses inactive since September 2010 transferred a combined 100 BTC shortly after 4 a.m. UTC on Nov. 13, 2026, according to data shared by Whale Alert. The bitcoin was worth nearly $6.9 million at the time, compared with an estimated $6 when it was mined. The owners and their reasons for moving it are unknown, and the transactions do not show that any bitcoin was sold.
Both addresses split their balances among destinations, and portions were later combined in a new address. Separately, a Bitcoin.com News investigation citing Checkonchain data estimated that about 227,196 BTC acquired before 2019 had become active during 2026.
