Friday morning may have begun with the crypto market seemingly becalmedâbut a mysterious Bitcoin whale suddenly began making waves.
The OG hodler had held onto their enormous stash of 80,000 BTCâworth $8.6 billion at todayâs pricesâfor 14 years, before it began moving in chunks of billions of dollars at a time, leaving industry observers baffled.
The coins likely came from an early miner, experts concludedâand their stash makes them one of the top five largest holders of Bitcoin in crypto history. But what theyâre doing with their funds is anyoneâs guess. Maybe theyâre rearranging their finances. Or preparing to scoop up some cheap NFTs. Or looking to buy a Mars rock.
Whatever the case, given that whale movements tend to send jitters through the crypto market, it could mean choppy waters ahead.
