Bitcoiner from Satoshi Era Earns $175M Profit after Hodling for 9 Yrs

Whale Alert, an AI service tracking the massive movement of coins across blockchains, has captured an intriguing development. On Saturday, Whale Alert reported that a Bitcoin (BTC) wallet from the Satoshi era has suddenly become active.

After ten years of dormancy, the crypto whale reawakened with a big move. The whale, which possesses a massive 1,128 BTC or $31.6 million, has recently transferred 279 BTC worth  $7.8 million to three new addresses.

This unexpected development caused a stir in the crypto community, as the whale had been inactive since October 2012 and May 2013, when the prices of Bitcoin were a mere $12 and $195, respectively.

On Wednesday, Whale Alert captured the movement of a more massive whale. It revealed that a dormant address containing 6,071 BTC worth over $178 million today had been activated after 9.3 years. Interestingly, the investor bought its Bitcoin with $3.3 million in 2013, earning a profit of over $175 million within a decade.

Bitcoin currently trades at $27,336, with a 10% crash in price over the past week. Glassnode, a prominent crypto analytics platform, recently reported that the current Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) value for the crypto market is 0.36, indicating a state of neutrality.

In other words, the market is currently neither bullish nor bearish but rather in a transitional phase. Glassnode’s data shows that 55.8% of days have recorded higher NUPL values than the current level, while 44.2% have recorded lower values.

Lawyer wants Hayden Davis arrested, says Milei's sister is LIBRA "mastermind"

An Argentinian lawyer calling for an international arrest warrant against Hayden Davis is claiming that the sister of Argentina’s president, Javier Milei, was the mastermind behind the LIBRA token scandal.  Attorney Gregorio Dalbon told the Buenes Aires radio station Pagina 12 AM 750 that he thinks Karina Milei is the LIBRA scam “mastermind” and that, “the president is the necessary participant, without whom the scam would never have happened.” According to Dalbon, both siblings won’t “speak ill” of Hayden Davis as he handles the profits from the “fraud” they allegedly committed together.  Es simple Hugo. Davis es Milei. Fin de la historia. Los demás son cómplices coautores y encubridores. LA SOCIEDAD ES DAVIS-MILEI. LA PLATA ES KARINA. La cuenta está en EEUU en una sociedad. Taiano no lo hará nunca.
