Reading Time: < 1 minute

A wallet’s owner, containing 2,995 BTC (equivalent to ~$82.8 million currently), made his/her first transaction in six years.

The funds were sent to two new addresses.

In May 2016, the individual received 3,200 BTC, valued at $1.5 million at the time. In September 2017, ~205 BTC was transferred from the wallet when the cryptocurrency was worth $13.8 million.

The remaining funds remained untouched until October 2019. In June, ARK Invest analysts reported that the amount of unmoved BTC made up 70% of the total market supply.

It was also found that there are six Bitcoin billionaires worldwide and 22 individuals with assets worth over $1 billion in various cryptocurrencies, according to Henley & Partners experts.
