A wallet dormant for 11 years suddenly destroys $8.3M in BTC Five wallets that had been dormant for 11 years suddenly became active yesterday, transferring a total of 107 BTC (approximately $8.3 million) to a burn address, permanently locking them. These wallets had been inactive since around 2014. After coming back online this time, they didn’t choose to sell but directly destroyed the funds. The reason remains unknown.
