Re: OG Bitcoin Wallet Addresses Suddenly Active

I did a quick search though and found this relevant article: https://cryptoslate.com/old-wallets-activate-sparking-fears-of-mass-hack-targeting-bitcoin-veterans/

Could it be that folks have figured out how to crack the codes on these old private keys? IF so, they are seeing some massive pay days, EH?

Whale alert...d'oh!

So first transaction mentioned would be this:

what hacker withdraws 400 BTC and leaves the other 600 BTC in the compromised address?

Second one:

So the hackers decided to take only 6071 coins and leave there coins worth $108,448,000!

Do this sound to you like some "hacks" happening?
