Satoshi Era Bitcoin Wallet Suddenly Awakens: Details

As an analyst with over two decades of experience in finance and technology, I must admit that the recent activation of dormant Bitcoin wallets harkens back to the early days of cryptocurrency when the market was still nascent and full of mystery. The fact that these wallets belonged to early adopters adds an element of intrigue that is hard to ignore.


Based on blockchain information, an inactive Bitcoin wallet that dates back to the initial period of Bitcoin, likely when Satoshi Nakamoto, the enigmatic creator of Bitcoin, was still involved, has unexpectedly become active.

As a data analyst, I’m observing that an inactive wallet holding approximately 64 Bitcoins, equivalent to around $4,147,400 at current exchange rates, has recently become active following a 13.6-year dormancy period.

Refers to the timeframe, known as the “Satoshi era,” during which the enigmatic creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, was frequently posting on various online platforms from around the end of 2009 until 2011.

In the past few days and weeks, numerous Bitcoin wallets that were previously inactive have been reactivated. As it has been reported, on August 21st, a dormant account holding 142 Bitcoins became active again after being inactive for 10.8 years. This activation yielded an impressive return of approximately 11,454%.

Back on August 19th, a Bitcoin wallet that hadn’t been used for nearly 11 years suddenly became active, holding 19 Bitcoins. These coins have since increased in value by an astonishing 8,844%, making them worth over $367,000 today – quite the return on investment! Similarly, on August 16th, a Bitcoin address that had been idle for approximately 10.6 years was activated, revealing a stash of 174 Bitcoins. With these coins now worth over $10.1 million, their value has skyrocketed from around $142,600 in the year 2014.

Wallets that have been dormant for a long time are likely to be owned by early Bitcoin enthusiasts, who either mined or bought Bitcoin during its initial stages. The reactivation of these wallets is an interesting event in the crypto market.

Bitcoin price action

As an analyst, I experienced a significant surge in the value of Bitcoin today, reaching a peak of $64,987 during the trading session. This upward trend was likely fueled by comments from U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell suggesting that a period of monetary easing could commence as early as next month.

In his address during the Jackson Hole Summit, Powell expressed that it’s now necessary to make adjustments in our policies. He further explained that while the general direction is set, the specific decisions regarding rate reductions will be influenced by upcoming data, the changing outlook, and a careful consideration of risks.

After these comments, Bitcoin experienced a significant boost. This surge carried over into the weekend trading on Saturday, pushing Bitcoin up to a record-high of $64,529.

currently, Bitcoin’s upward trend has shown a minor decrease; at present moment, Bitcoin (BTC) is reportedly decreased by 0.43% over the past 24 hours, with its current price standing at $63,929.

Based on the analysis by crypto expert Ali, using the MVRV pricing model, a key resistance level for Bitcoin to surpass is approximately $67,300. Overcoming this barrier could pave the way for Bitcoin’s price to potentially reach $80,500.
