Well, first of all, there aren't millions Smiley It is set to display the quantity in mBTC.

That is, there you get 331831.98344229 BTC. Secondly, I checked the very first address, it is the address with bitcoins stolen from MtGox in 2011.

I am an infamous Bitcoin address containing 79,956 BTC stolen from MtGox in 2011, coins which have never moved since. Many claim me but no one has my key.

I assume that the whole wallet contains the same stolen bitcoins.

And yes, this wallet has not been hacked so far, so I doubt you can do anything with them.

So what recommendation do you have for me? Can I try transferring some of those funds to my wallet to see if it works or is it too risky to try?  thank you so much
