Bitcoin Whale Moves $1,583,709,890 in BTC in Series of Staggering Transactions – Here’s Where the Crypto Is Now

A massive whale is moving more than a billion dollars in Bitcoin in a flurry of transactions that effectively emptied a number of newly created crypto wallets.

Data from Blockchain.com shows the deep-pocketed investor just drained a crypto wallet that had recently accumulated over 74,105 in BTC worth over $1.58 billion.

The wealthy Bitcoin whale initially shifted the large BTC trove in two transactions.

The first transfer involves the movement of 50,562 BTC, worth nearly $1.08 billion at time of writing, to a wallet of unknown origin.

For the second transfer, the whale moved 23,542 BTC worth about $505 million at time of writing to a separate wallet of unknown origin.

A closer look at the whale’s activity shows that the investor eventually relocated the 50,562 BTC to the same wallet that collected the 23,542 BTC stash.

From there, the crypto whale transferred the huge Bitcoin trove in a series of large transactions that allowed the owner to store hundreds or thousands of BTC in separate wallets.

  • 4,000 BTC worth $85.64 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 10,000 BTC worth $214.11 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 10,000 BTC worth $214.11 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 10,000 BTC worth $214.11 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 9,642 BTC worth $206.44 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 10,000 BTC worth $214.11 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 10,000 BTC worth $214.11 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 10,000 BTC worth $214.11 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin
  • 562 BTC worth $12.03 million sent to this wallet of unknown origin

The total number of the shifted Bitcoin is slightly higher than the BTC that was initially transferred, suggesting that the entity behind the movements may have mixed in a few BTC in the process.

Crypto whales are known to shuffle their large Bitcoin troves, often begging the question of whether the owner is looking to sell their coins or shift assets around for security purposes.

This Bitcoin fortune in particular does not appear to be heading to an address owned by a crypto exchange, where the BTC could be sold in the open market.
