Bitcoin whale awakens after 12 years

The 139 BTC bought in 2011 became active again on May 11, when the owner of the BTC transferred them to a new wallet address.

The whale, which has been dormant for nearly 12 years, purchased its BTCs in June 2011 when the price was just over $2,250. At the current price of Bitcoin, his wallet is worth about $3.5 million.
