A fascinating on-chain event has been detected—an ancient address that has been inactive for 13 years suddenly woke up yesterday, transferring out 909.38 BTC, which is estimated to be worth nearly $85 million at current market prices.



What’s most impressive is the cost basis of this account. When this early holder entered the market, Bitcoin was less than $7 each. And now? The increase is nearly 14,000 times. From this perspective, those who can hold for over a decade without moving truly have a different level of psychological resilience and understanding of market cycles.

Why pay special attention to the actions of such large holders? History shows us that the awakening of old whale accounts at specific times is often not a random event. During bull markets, the activity of these ancient addresses usually shows a significant increase. Of course, this isn’t simple repetition of history, but there is indeed a certain rhythmic pattern.

The current lesson for ordinary traders is quite simple—hold on to the positions you truly believe in, and don’t trade frequently. Those who truly navigate cycles are never successful by luck or timing alone, but through market understanding and sufficient patience. When will the next wave of market movement come? No one can predict accurately, but being prepared is always the right move.

I've experienced this system myself. Accounts that haven't moved in 13 years definitely deserve attention, but don't mythologize it as some kind of signal. In 2018, old addresses also woke up and resulted in a storm of bloodshed. Those who truly make money are never those chasing whales, but those who are still alive.

Wow, this guy held for 13 years, with a cost basis of only 7 yuan, and now he's cashing out 85 million. How strong must his mindset be? That's why I always say hold on tight; frequent trading is the fate of rookies. Even a slight move in the antique address can reveal some insights; history is rhyming.

Haven't moved in 13 years, and then suddenly 85 million. How strong must that mentality be... Why the hell don't I have this resolve? If it doesn't rise in a month, I get itchy.

Damn, I haven't moved in thirteen years, and when I finally do, it's over 900. How strong must my mental resilience be?
