Blockchain sleuths report these transfers began on July 17, with the tokens scattered like breadcrumbs to four wallets. Two of them—gobbling up 30 million and 10 million XRP—smell suspiciously like crypto exchanges (because nothing says “I believe in this project” like dumping it on Binance). The remaining 10 million? Split between two fresh wallets like a questionable inheritance. 🕵️♂️
On the platform X, where whispers become roars, the vigilant sleuth Lookonchain unveiled a spectacle: a wallet, silent since January 2011, suddenly twitched. This wallet, once a mere vessel for 3,962 BTC, had lain untouched, perhaps forgotten, like a letter in a bottle cast into the vast ocean of the blockchain. At the time, Bitcoin traded for a paltry $0.37, rendering this hoard worth a mere $1,460—a sum one might spend on a particularly extravagant dinner or a poorly thought-out tattoo. 🍷🖌️

The demand? Oh, just a tiny, insignificant little thing called “massive” interest from investors eager to dive headfirst into the cryptocurrency pool. This, as told by our anonymous source, who has the journalistic integrity of a squirrel on caffeine.
XRP leads in yearly gains, surging 552% since July 2024 and 49% year-to-date. Can it keep this up? 🤔
For seven long days, Bitcoin has trudged through the snow between $116,000 and $119,000, neither advancing nor retreating—merely surviving, as all things must in this frozen tundra of speculation.
According to this celestial analytics platform, while our beloved Bitcoin flutters just beneath the lofty heights of its historical peak, fear not! The clouds of global economic mayhem swirl below, yet the ‘risk’ to our crypto monarch appears elusive, lurking like a forgotten ghost in a dimly lit alleyway.
It appears that the US spot ETF flows are bestowing a rather unexpected crown upon Ether, leaving Bitcoin to ponder its life choices this week.
WOO X, which is powered by the elusive WOO (WOO) token, reported they experienced this dastardly act on July 24. Just nine unsuspecting users were bitten by this naughty attack. 🐍
