Satoshi-Era Whale Who Bought Bitcoin Under $7 Goes Online With 1,390,000% Profit

An untouched Bitcoin address has just moved its entire stack — 909.38 BTC, now worth $84.62 million — into a new wallet format, as revealed by Lookonchain. Everyone who knows what such a wallet can cause immediately asked three questions: who, why and what’s next. 

The address received its first inflow sometime between 2011 and 2012 via MPEx and a series of now-defunct legacy platforms, building its position in sub-$7 conditions long before the existence of halving, ordinals, ETFs and stablecoin pairings.

That entire stack endured through Mt. Gox, China’s bans, the double top in 2013, the blow-off in 2017, the 2020 pandemic crash, and two U.S. presidential cycles — only to be moved four hours ago in a single transaction.

The new destination wallet is a modern, SegWit-compatible, efficient bech32 address — a strong signal that the original holder or inheritor is technically competent, alive and aware of best practices for wallet hygiene. 

Why now?

While there is no evidence of an exchange deposit yet, the proximity of the move to current BTC technical pressure zones is hard to ignore. 

Bitcoin is trading at $91,111, well below its local high of $124,743, while chart signals point to a possible 23/50-day moving average death cross. A deeper flush to $74,000 or even $69,000 remains in play, and early-cycle holders with a zero cost basis have little incentive to wait for liquidity if the macro environment changes.

This is not a bullish or bearish move on its own, but rather a reappearance. What matters now is whether that BTC touches any public CEX or vanishes into wrapped tokens, mixers or institutional custody through an OTC deal.

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

The post Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave DAO is gearing up for a significant overhaul by shutting down over 50% of underperforming L2 instances. It is also restructuring its governance framework and deploying over $100 million to boost GHO. This could be a pivotal moment that propels Aave back to the forefront of on-chain lending or sparks unprecedented controversy within the DeFi community. Sponsored Sponsored ACI Proposes Shutting Down 50% of L2s The “State of the Union” report by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) paints a candid picture. After a turbulent period in the DeFi market and internal challenges, Aave (AAVE) now leads in key metrics: TVL, revenue, market share, and borrowing volume. Aave’s annual revenue of $130 million surpasses the combined cash reserves of its competitors. Tokenomics improvements and the AAVE token buyback program have also contributed to the ecosystem’s growth. Aave global metrics. Source: Aave However, the ACI’s report also highlights several pain points. First, regarding the Layer-2 (L2) strategy. While Aave’s L2 strategy was once a key driver of success, it is no longer fit for purpose. Over half of Aave’s instances on L2s and alt-L1s are not economically viable. Based on year-to-date data, over 86.6% of Aave’s revenue comes from the mainnet, indicating that everything else is a side quest. On this basis, ACI proposes closing underperforming networks. The DAO should invest in key networks with significant differentiators. Second, ACI is pushing for a complete overhaul of the “friendly fork” framework, as most have been unimpressive regarding TVL and revenue. In some cases, attackers have exploited them to Aave’s detriment, as seen with Spark. Sponsored Sponsored “The friendly fork model had a good intention but bad execution where the DAO was too friendly towards these forks, allowing the DAO only little upside,” the report states. Third, the instance model, once a smart…
