I'm interested in buying. what's your contact
This is not a sales thread. OP moved the funds to Coinbase and sold them there and has since not replied back. If you want to buy crypto use an exchange or visit the marketplace section of this forum.

Might be possible that these addresses belongs to satoshi ?

I think that Satoshi would not ask about how you can sell such a number of bitcoins. If I didn 't see a transaction for 1000 bitcoins, I would think that this is an April fool's joke) In 2010, there were not many miners who believed in the future of bitcoin and generated it on their computer. But who is hiding behind the nickname "whoamisoon" we will never know.

If the amount is over 50 BTC you should consider selling OTC as you could get 20% premium for your "virgin" btc.

Dont sweep into one address as it will or could reveal your identity.

Some will pay a premium for fresh coins as someone above stated earlier..

Too bad, he already did. (https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/54aa0aa03fd0dc5f4a6e2c61fc6267e3ae82c36d122d36e0bd6cb1022a154a01)
If the link from that article is true and it's really him, then those 20 coinbase transactions are just consolidated to 3CU4AYJH23ePNnKsycinP5TSogCNGsyqCc then sent to different addresses.

Holy shit. Dude had a 1000 BTC transfer..?! That is fucking insane.

Little confused why my response was deleted?

Maybe for using 4 letter word.

If the OP is still reading, you sell it all or is more on the way?

Nice! I'm glad BTC was found for you due to past effort!

Personally used to use localbitcoins.com or some similar site to sell..

I'd honestly hold off on selling though.. Price is in the dumps right now in comparison to what it was.. And if you don't immediately need the fiat currency if you can hold out for a month or two the price should be roughly double what it is now.

I mined some bitcoin for a little bit, a long time ago; back when it was still possible to mine with GPU.
I haven't been active here for a long time.

How do I move my BTC to sell? I still have the wallet.dat file saved in thumb drive from back then. Also, do I have the same amount of BCH as I have in BTC? How do I move / sell BCH?

Edit: Should I follow this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a08MlPSSULU

Thank you

If the amount is over 50 BTC you should consider selling OTC as you could get 20% premium for your "virgin" btc.

Dont sweep into one address as it will or could reveal your identity.

Also, once you cleared the wallets, keep them safe, they could have secondary value, even emptied.

Finally, even if you use vpn your IP will be revealed if you dont turn off webCRT, even if you run your own full node broadcasting your transaction will reveal your ip to connected nodes. ( thats what chainanalysis sniffing do)

Just a few pre caution tips.

That will work for recovering your Bitcoins but it requires you to sync the blockchain;
if you have the resources, do that.

To recover your BCH, you can do the same but download a BCH full node instead (note: BCH blockchain is a lot bloated than BTC's)

Alternatively, you can just export the keys from your wallet using dumpwallet command (usage: https://bitcoincore.org/en/doc/0.16.0/rpc/wallet/dumpwallet/).
Using those exported keys, you can import it to other client like Electrum and Electron cash to recover BTC and BCH.

Just make sure that you have a backup of that wallet file in case of file corruption.

Didn't know there have been so many forks! Awesome! Love it! Grin

You can check other fork coins of your BCH wallet or Bitcoin wallet to http://www.findmycoins.ninja/

If you are going to get those fork coins always make sure to transfer major coins like BTC and BCH before you claim the other fork coins.
Because there are reports that if you didn't transfer your BTC to another wallet before claiming fork coins your Bitcoin will be lost.

So always transfer your major coins first before taking out other fork coins.

Edit: Should I follow this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a08MlPSSULU

Thank you

This method gives you a proper way to import your wallet.dat file but before you can claim fork coins you will need to transfer Bitcoin to another wallet as I suggested above.

And then export your private keys you can use these commands below

Code:
walletpassphrase "your walletpassphrase here" 600
dumpprivkey [your Bitcoin address here]

Once you get the private keys keep them somewhere safe. You can use that private key to claim any fork coins.

make sure to pull the btc at  least 95% of it or more.

leave a bit in the original address as it will hlep you track things.

Also, do I have the same amount of BCH as I have in BTC? How do I move / sell BCH?
Yes, as long as you have never moved or transferred it during the fork. Since you've mentioned you're in a long hiatus, let's assume that you never did. You all have the known forks there and one possible way to claim is through exodus wallet for bch and sv.
Exodus cannot be used. That tutorial can be used only when your bitcoin is stored in your exodus wallet and you want to claim your BCH or BSV.
As the OP is talking about a wallet.dat file, that should be a bitcoin core wallet. So, the OP should first install Bitcoin Core and export the private key. Then can import that private key into exodus or other wallets to restore BTC, BCH and BSV.

Thank you.
Exodus is the client for BCH?
Is BSV another fork? I did not know there was another fork to BCV! And looks like I can use Exodus for both forks?

Thanks for the caution! Appreciate that.
BSV is a fork of BCH and since you have untouched your BCH, you're also expecting to receive it once you've claimed your BCH.

Exodus is a wallet and is just another way to claim your BCH, there are other ways for the process but I find this easier.

Yes, you can use Exodus for both forks. You also have other forks to claim like Bitcoin Gold, and the ones that has a good ranking in coinmarketcap. But not all of them has value.

Welcome back!
https://support.exodus.io/article/64-how-do-i-claim-bitcoin-cash
https://support.exodus.io/article/994-how-do-i-claim-bsv-in-exodus

Be wise and careful with some strangers that will try to help you but with a different method and agenda because they might scam you. Because they will ask for that file so only do the process on your own unless the person is very reputable in the forum.

Thank you.
