BTC Whale Transfers 3,000 Bitcoin After 5 Years Dormant
After five years of complete inactivity, a prominent Bitcoin whale associated with the wallet address “19D5J8” has made a significant on-chain movement, transferring 3,000 BTC—valued at approximately $353.16 million - to a newly created wallet.
The transfer was to a modern SegWit-style wallet, indicating security and consolidation motives. No significant impact on Bitcoin’s market price has been observed.
The transaction, first observed on August 16, 2025, marks the first activity from this address since 2019.
The wallet in question holds a total of 23,969 BTC, currently valued at around $2.82 billion, making this a rare and high-stakes move from one of Bitcoin’s long-dormant holders.
The funds have not yet been sent to any known exchange addresses, leaving the market to speculate about the whale’s next steps.
