A 2011 Bitcoin Wallet Just Moved 1,000 $BTC — After 14 Years of Silence
This chart shows one of the rarest events in Bitcoin history. A wallet created in December 2011, holding 1,000 BTC, just woke up and moved its entire balance.
That’s nearly $89 million sent in a single transaction.
The wallet originally received those coins when Bitcoin($BTC ) was trading around $3.88. Today, that same stack is worth over $89 million, marking one of the biggest long-term profit moves ever recorded on-chain.
Year Major Milestone / Peak Price
2009 $0.00 (Launch)
2011 $30.00
2013 $1,150.00
2017 $19,783.00
2021 $69,000.00
2024 Breaks $100,000.00
2025 ~$111,600.00 (All-Time High)
What makes this even more fascinating is the timing. Dormant wallets from the early era almost never move unless something major is happening behind the scenes — ownership change, estate settlement, $BTC transfer, or early whales repositioning ahead of a new market phase.
