⚡️🔎 NEWS - The recent transfer of 80,000 Bitcoin, inactive for 14 years, could have come from wallets originally hosted by MyBitcoin.

MyBitcoin is a service that collapsed after a hack in July 2011.

Ki Young Ju, CEO of Cryptoquant, believes that the BTCs probably belong to the MyBitcoin hacker or the anonymous founder known as Tom Williams.

He also adds: "It appears that Galaxy Digital purchased the Bitcoin from them, but I'm not sure if they performed a forensic analysis."

As a reminder, Galaxy Digital "finalized the sale of over 80,000 Bitcoin for a Satoshi-era investor, representing one of the earliest and largest exits from the digital asset market."
