2010 Block Reward Transfers Become Infrequent, Friday’s Transfer Would Net 76 Million Percent in Gains if Sold for USD
Der 2010 block reward move on Friday, if exchanged for fiat would be worth over $3.1 Million, as bitcoin (BTC) opened the day on Friday exchanging hands for $62,237 pro Einheit. Remarkably, when the bitcoin miner acquired the coins, the entire lot was only worth $4. The miner decided to wait and not spend it at $0.08 pro Einheit, which was the price equivalent of a single bitcoin in June-July 2010.
The miner would manage to gain a whopping 76,249,900% increase in value if he or she decided to trade the funds for fiat that day. Meanwhile as mentioned above, 2010 block reward spends have been far and few between during the last four months. Obwohl, dort’s been a greater number of 2011 block reward transfers.
Prior to Friday’S 2010 Block, 13 block rewards from 2011 were moved on the blockchain in October alone. Using exchange rates from October 23, that’S $39.5 million in value if exchanged for fiat. This is because the terms “ausgegeben” oder “ausgeben” in this article do not necessarily mean that the bitcoins were “verkauft” to a third party like a popular crypto exchange.

We cannot say whether or not the whale that constantly spent 20 block rewards from 2010 will not return. Prior to the June 9 spend of 1,000 ‘sleeping bitcoin,’ Wert $35 million at the time of transfer, the whale waited 78 days to come back.
