Bitcoin fell below $96,000 today, down about 11% since it topped $108,000 on December 17, 2024. At the same time, at Bitcoin network block height 875,560, a wallet that had been dormant since July 25, 2015 was activated and transferred 44.99 BTC, marking its first activity since its creation. The same user actually transferred a total of 59.99 BTC, moving funds from three legacy addresses (P2PKH) to two payment witness public key hash (P2WPKH) wallets. 44.99 BTC of these came from 2015, when BTC was trading at $290. Then, 43 blocks later, a dozen legacy wallets from 2017 became active, transferring a small amount of Bitcoin (0.00000547 BTC) at block 875,603. This pattern of sending bitcoin in pieces cleverly masks a much larger transfer. Once the satoshis are settled, a newly minted P2WPKH wallet receives 99.999 BTC, worth $9.7 million at current prices. On Saturday, a wallet was activated after 12 years of dormancy, transferring 104.99 BTC, which was worth just $11 at the time, for a total value of $1,200. Today, those BTC are worth more than $10 million. The transfer also moved from an old P2PKH address to a new P2WPKH address. (Bitcoin.com)

Well-known trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio published his views on the altcoin market on X: "Altcoins (Alts) quickly fell back to these levels again in less than 48 hours after forming the lower shadow lows (wick lows), indicating that investors are extremely anxious about holding spot assets and are eager to sell. The market may enter a longer adjustment phase, or fall rapidly in a short period of time." Note: The lower shadow (Wick Lows) is a thin line extending downward from the body in the candlestick chart. In the positive line, it is the difference between the opening price and the lowest price of the day; in the negative line, it is the difference between the closing price and the lowest price of the day. Generally speaking, the reason for the lower shadow is that the bulls are stronger than the bears.
