Good find, those addresses are really dormant, so we don't know what suddenly he just dumped everything in 2019. He could have liquidate it during the peak in 2017 and I'm sure he will have a windfall that time.

But it really doesn't make sense to sell it in 2019, so perhaps someone get hold of all that addresses and the privatekey and quickly sell-off to take the money away and enjoy his "bounty". I don't think that the original owner will just dumped it, his been holding it for so long, he could have waited for another new all-time-high before selling and that is the most logical thing to do.

It's about 8 years already passed away now the owner remembered that he had some BTC around 3000. He wants to exchange them now?

It's pretty funny anytime there is such spike in  the price of BTC these things happen. Well i guess everybody has his/her sell target for BTC and probably this is theirs. I am just waiting to see the day that Satoshi is also going to move any of his genesis block rewards> He might be waiting for $50K per coin then.  Cool

As you are not the author of this collection (did not find these addresses by yourself in blockchain), it is always good style to make the reference to the original post: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.52879592

However, thank you for transorming all the public keys to final addresses.

these titles were in the wrong range and moved to a safe place

2**169 > 2**170 Bit are all within this range

We cannot confirm if these 21 addresses are owned by just one person, but it would be a coincidence if they became active all at the same time. It could be an early adapter of bitcoin. Guest have forgotten that he has a bitcoin or just have found the access to his wallet again because if I were that person I would have chose to sell my bitcoin last 2017, and not today. Or it could be that he needs cash immediately or he had set this specific time to sell.

Hi,

All below addresses were emptied this year. Most of them in Sept. 2019. Around 2982 BTC in 21 addresses.
All addresses were first used in 2011, and dormant until now.
BCH is still there except 1 address.

No spending transactions on them so the public key was not known.
The owner he suddenly remembered after 8 years that he had some BTC?

What are your opinions?

Just because he simply didn't sell any of his bitcoin doesn't mean he forgot about them so there are more scenarios :

1. The owner needed some urgent cash in order to buy something

2. He forgot about them ( one lucky guy who mined in 2011 )

3. Long term holder so he didn't need to make any transactions without any significant reason

4. He cashed out and he's one happy guy

5. Several personal owns those address ( maybe a group of whales or investors or maybe even a project )

The amount he had its still low to make a significant impact in the Bitcoin price but he can be considered a mini whale as there are still 2982 BTC which is not a small amount we can't deny it. When the bull run will begin we will see transaction of 10k Bitcoin moving out and that is something normal around a bullish market.

Waiting for 8 years is a very long period of waiting for Bitcoin to become more expensive and perhaps they should sell their Bitcoins on 2017 so i think it was not planned to keep it. Maybe the owner(s) lost the private keys and found it then they sell the Bitcoin right away as Bitcoin value today is still much expensive compared to 8 years ago.
It very long-awaited years for the owner of this wallet. Yes, the owner might have lost his private key and suddenly found it or else I think he just forgot about it and suddenly appear in his mind that he is holding much Bitcoin.

There are possibilities that these addresses are own by whales that just the market passes till right now, I have a huge speculation that they know what will happen why they hodl such big amount of bitcoin from 2011. In this case, we can perceive that market will be much lively as they participate in trading.

Different speculations are now coming into our minds. A sudden movement of a dormant wallet which is suddenly appeared after all these years.
There is a higher percentage that this is owned by a whale and there must be something huge that will happen in the market for the next following days or months.

At the same time, I have a fear that it can make the bitcoin market price decline a little bit as lost bitcoin is a key to huge market price.

I am not alarmed with these Bitcoin addresses suddenly waking up after years of being dormant, me thinks this is just another natural occurrence in this industry. Whatever reason/s the holders may have for this decision, it is only them that knows. This is just plainly strange as 8 years is a long period of time and why the holder/s did take advantage of the bull run in 2017 is another mystery.

On the other hand, can this be connected with the recent soar of the Bitcoin price? Maybe holders realized that it is time to let go of these coins and convert them into fiat money. I would be interested if there can be more wallets waking up and suddenly doing some transactions and not just these few enumerated above.

One question OP, how did you 'specifically' found this addresses?
I am guessing you have been monitoring it before now to know when the owner made this move.
Anyways, three particular thing is involved here;
1) Perhaps the owner suddenly remembered he had some certain amount of Bitcoin

2) The owner has been hodling since and probably finally decided to make use of the funds (Not sure why he didn't spend not even one when the price was 20k though)

3) Someone else got hold of the private key or assess to the funds. (I hope this is not the case here)

I have a list with dormant addresses around 2700 and I'm monitoring their activity for personal reasons.
Few days back I checked the balance on all of them and I saw that the funds were moved for some.

We don't know if is one person or a group. Also we don't know if is the owner..but it has the private keys.
The funds were only moved to other addresses.


Maybe this has been done by a single person, as you said this wallet already been existed since 2011. I think an individual store it and do not intend to move or use it over the past few years for his own reasons. This may be his time to make a move.
Well, we don't know his reasons.

We can have different scenarios here that may explain these transactions. Its either:

(1) There is a single owner that suddenly remembered about his bitcoins and decided to use them or suddenly found his list of public and private keys, or

(2) This could be a group of early bitcoin holders that had talks and decided now is the time to pull out or transfer those bitcoins.

Either way, 8 years is way too long and I it's unlikely that it's planned. It's maybe a forgotten asset and remembered, while luckily keeping private keys safe.

May be they were waiting for this time since long? I don't think that suddenly they woke up and remembered their lost keys or wallets.

~snip~

It's surprising and alarming as well because I feel there is something really big which is been planned as these accounts have been active after so many years and I am sure 2982 bitcoins might not change the market situation but these are the only address which you have notified and there might be hundreds of other address as well and these might belong to one organization which is involved in manipulating the market.  
 
Oh man  Grin
I didn't find it suspicious or something like alarming/surprising, just relax.

[snipped]

What are your opinions?

Interesting. 2982 BTC is not a huge amount to influence the price of Bitcoin. But these are only what you have identified. More may have taken action.
I wonder that what is their purpose?
3000 BTC, not including the forked values goes to around 27-28 million bitcoin, and if that was to enter the market, I would have no doubt in my mind that there would be a lot of issues we'll see, especially on a high volume exchange if he doesn't decide to go OTC.

There are a lot of reasons why a couple of domart addresses could have woken up, there's also a pretty decent chance that they don't all belong to the same owner and it's just coincidence that they woke up together, but my brain tells me it's probably some even that prompted him/her to realized they have a stash of BTC.

We will never know as bitcoin addresses doesn't have name attach to it. So we can speculation that the owner is a long term holder, or suddenly remembers his private key, or someone get ahold of an old desktop/laptop that contains a lot of bitcoin and was able to get the private key as well. That's the beauty of bitcoin though, the owner remains (psuedo) anonymous and it remains a mystery to all of us.

What's the point? I don't get it. So grow up Smiley

I posted the info on a telegram group in 23 Oct. (me and drotika we are members in that group). drotika took the adressess and extracted the public keys and posted the info on the puzzle topic.
I have other 2700 dormant addresses and I'm monitoring their activity for months now.
I didn't had to transform anything from anything.

Yes and I think the answer to your 2nd guess would be that the owner believes that it would continue to grow since back then there are so many speculation and we all thought that it was going to continue.
And the third one would be a good one too we don't know if the real owner still knows about their  crypto wallet and might have forgotten about it.
