Whale Alert, a well-known blockchain data platform that tracks the movement of large cryptocurrency, discovered that an ancient whale was awakening within an hour.
This wallet was hibernated just four years after the mysterious Bitcoin creator had stopped working with Nakamoto Atoshi with his own inventor and went under the radar.
The whale has been inactive for about 11 years and is revitalized today. The wallet owners made a staggering five-digit profit with a three-digit Bitcoin bag.
The whale will return at 300 BTC worth $31 million
According to Whale Alert, the above reactivated wallet contains 300 bitcoins. This amount of the world’s largest code was only $134,144 in 2014 when the whales fell asleep, and now this BTC chunk is valued at $31,045,610. This is an astounding 23,043.5% profit increase.

About a week ago, U.Today reported that another ancient Bitcoin Whale had emerged from a long hibernation holding a coin of 1,078 btc. The wallet remained inactive for almost 12 years. These Bitcoins were worth around $93,000 in 2013, and by the first week of April 2025 its value had increased to $102.5 million.
Whale and Shark Absorb 83,105 Bitcoins
Currently, a report released by the on-chain data provider Santiment shows that the leading crypto whales and sharks (wallets holding 10-10,000 BTC) have acquired another large-scale bitcoin batch so far. Over the past 30 days, they added 83,105 BTC to their wallets.
In the meantime, the smallest retail crypto owners (holding less than 0.1 BTC) have sold around 387 bitcoins over the same period, Santiment said.
The main whale and shark layer of Bitcoin (holds 10-10K BTC) has accumulated 83,105 BTC in the past 30 days. Meanwhile, the smallest retail owner (holding <0.1 BTC) dumped 387 BTC over the same period.
