Bitcoin Wallets From 2010 Linked To Satoshi Nakamoto, Theory Suggests

According to Odaily, Bitcoin research firm BTCparser recently published an article discussing a significant number of Bitcoin wallet addresses created in 2010. Each of these addresses holds 50 Bitcoins and remained inactive until their first transfer in November 2019. The article refers to these wallets as the "2010 Whale." The theory suggests that Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, might own these wallets and has been gradually selling off the holdings. The theory further posits that Nakamoto deliberately avoids touching wallets from 2009 to prevent drawing attention. BTCparser emphasizes that this is merely a theory and not a definitive conclusion. The speculation arises from the pattern of wallet activity and the historical context of Bitcoin's early days. The idea that Nakamoto could be behind these transactions adds an intriguing layer to the ongoing mystery surrounding the identity and actions of Bitcoin's creator. However, without concrete evidence, the theory remains speculative, inviting further investigation and discussion within the cryptocurrency community.
