Someone just moved 40000 Bitcoins. And the best part is the fee! LOL

Just imagine the paperwork you need to go through if you are going to move 400M USD from one account to another if you are going to use the banking system.

Omg, I never knew that someone would have such an amount of Bitcoin at this time. Wait, is this one of the early investors that started in 2009 or 2010 and has been saving all the Bitcoin he had then till now. Maybe he bought them at cheaper rate, if not, then this may be a group of people investing together. Damn, that’s a huge amount of money.

It looks like they've just moved their coins to a segwit address (the output address starts with a 3 which indicates segwit). Just some housekeeping here, nothing to see.

What does "Unable to decode output address" mean you can hide the address to which you send money? In general, it is in such transactions that the whole power of technology is covered. It's just amazing to send 440 million dollars somewhere for 1 hour and with a fee of 1 dollar.

It is. However it's said there that it's "unable to decode output address". What is the meaning of that? Did the transferrer accidentally transferred it to a non-bitcoin address, purging 40k bitcoins in the process? Is that even possible?

No it is not a non-bitcoin address or invalid address.

It is segwit bech32 address which you will get from new electrum wallet, still many explorer can't support this address type. You have to click on Show scripts & coinbase at button side of blockchain.info explorer to see that address.

Only envy that someone has so much money ....

It could be one of the reasons. But it seems OP only got "shocked" while he saw such huge amount moved to other address.

Just realized that it may be the stolen NEMs from the Japanese exchange. Then the culprit just converted them into bitcoin then transferred them to his own wallet? (this is just a theory)

The 40k btc are completely unrelated to NEM. Don't spread misinformation with your dump theories.
Also, the wallets holding the stolen XEMs have already been flagged, so any signs of movements from them, like selling using exchanges or transfering XEMs to another wallet, can be traced by the NEM team.

The commission does not matter, since there are already confirmations.

The point of this topic is to spread awareness about SegWit addresses.

I just entered in the crypto system, trying to understand something, but what I see is completely crazy.
How is possible to transfer a so big sum (we are talking about 400 million dollars...) anonymously?
Hard to believe.

Holy crap that's a lot and the fees $1 wtf i mean i get it he might be some fee expert or has consulted someone but sending $400 million and $1 as fees , i think this is a clear example that btc is original and some shit like bch can't replace it , this proves his whitepaper was real.
There is surely one problem if he wants to convert to cash it can take him months or even years , there is high demand but keeping yourself anonymous is going to be super hard.

Fees 0.0001 BTC

Hahaha! He paid only around $1.00 in fees.

If Roger Ver and Jihan Wu did not keep flooding the mempool with spam transactions, Bitcoin would be fine. There is no need for bigger blocks, everyone. Using Segwit is enough.

Moving fiat currency is incredibly frustrating. If I want to move $3,000 USD to Mexico using one of the cheapest ways I can find - Paypal (in small towns in Mexico not even banks will handle Western Union for $3K), the fee is $87.00.

This guy moves $400,000,000 worth of USD for $1.00 in fees. Please tell me this will eventually spell doom for the banking/moneyhandling architecture that is currently in place. I guess it will be awhile, and I guess it won't be easy, but damn I wish it would come soon.

Such amount of money is being move in the banking system without issue just that you have to fill those paper works in other for them to ascertain the source of the funds and be sire it complies with international laws and I wonder what the problem would be if you don't have anything to hide.

And even thinking no paper work is need to move that kind of money because is crypto is grossly exaggerated only if he won't pass through exchange site because there your verification will be on the highest level.

He sent 4000 Bitcoin to segwit address and only paid $1 for the transaction fees (11.086 sat/B) lol. Anyway it is normal because the mempool is not clogged by hundreds of thousand unconfirmed transaction anymore so paying for this low transaction fee will have no problem, seems spamming in the network have stopped for now. But the interesting part is he transfer his Bitcoin to segwit address, I'm starting to think that people have now realized that using segwit addresses is way more better than legacy addresses.

it is the famous bitcointalk user called Loaded who has moved his coins from a legacy address to a Bech32 (native SegWit address).
https://twitter.com/khannib/status/957186970672947200

here is him signing a message from the "source" of this 40000BTC. i don't know why he kept moving it before this!

I find it hard moving anything over 2k USD here rofl so that's a whopping amount of BTC. I wonder what type of whale is shifting that kind of money around. Maybe it's a bank or an exchange or even the Japanese Exchange hackers. It could be anyone but that is a hefty some of money to move around in one go. I wouldn't risk moving that kind of money amount in one transaction. Can you imagine it getting clogged up on the blockchain? Grin

Yes it can be a pain though many of it. That is some big investors probably trying or taking advantage of BTC while it is on a dumping state. The fee maybe not that much but the money you've spent on just moving it to bitcoin maybe higher than the fee on BTC. We may seeing a large scale groups of big investors trying to reach the full potential of Bitcoin.
