Bitcoin Wallets Dormant for Over a Decade Move $40M in One Week

Wallets dormant for more than a decade moved roughly $40 million in Bitcoin over the past week, according to reports. The activity indicates that early-era private keys remain accessible and that long-dormant coins are being mobilized or consolidated. While $40M is small relative to Bitcoin’s circulating supply and unlikely to cause major market disruption on its own, it increases short-term sell-side liquidity risk and signals the potential for further reactivation of long-tailed holdings.
