In a surprising move, a group of dormant bitcoin wallets holding over 80,009 BTC (worth around $8.69 billion) have suddenly become active after 14 years. This activity, first flagged by on-chain tracker Lookonchain, has stirred up concerns across the crypto world.

8 bitcoin dormant addresses were linked to this OG.On April 2, 2011, two wallets received 20,000 coins (then worth $15,600).On May 4, 2011, six wallets received 60,009 (then worth $202,000).In total, the OG received these coins when it was priced at $0.78 and $3.37.On July 5, 2025, 40,000 coins (valued at $4.35 billion) were moved from 4 wallets, while the other 4 remain untouched.
This massive movement of old BTC has triggered fears of a price crash, especially since it happened without any warning.
Is Satoshi Nakamoto Secretly Behind This Move?
As the market tries to decode the wallet activity, new speculation is swirling around Satoshi Nakamoto. According to Crypto Beast, Satoshi may have just received $20,000 in BTC, triggering fresh doubts.

Arkham Intelligence, reports that wallets linked to Satoshi still hold over 1.096 million coins, now worth around $118.57 billion. These are considered dormant addresses, and movements from them always spark theories—whether Satoshi is active or someone else is behind these ancient wallets.
Why Did These Bitcoin OG Wallets Move Coins After 14 Years?
There are several possible reasons behind this sudden movement from whale news sources:
Arthur Hayes recently warned that BTC may drop to $90K due to macro liquidity issues.
Ali Martinez shared charts showing Bitcoin may follow its old bearish patterns from 2015 and 2018, which could crash prices by over 70%.
Robert Kiyosaki’s Bitcoin prediction also hinted at a crash. He believes the coin will fall so he can buy more.

Political factors may also play a role. The ongoing Trump tariff war and the public fight between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, who is rumored to start his own political party, may be hurting investor confidence.
All these create a negative environment where large holders might feel it's time to secure profits or move funds before things go worse. Result of all these activities, BTC price has recorded a crash of over 1%, dropping from $109.35K to $107.31K, before trading at the current price of $108,302.93.  
Are Whales Planning to Sell BTC and Exit?
While none of the 80,009 BTC has been sent to exchanges yet, the move has raised real questions. Are the OG wallets preparing to sell?
The answer isn’t clear. Analysts suggest that since the funds are still off exchanges, the action might not be bearish—for now. But if such Dormant Wallet Activations are initiating liquidity injections into other cryptocurrencies, then it may shape the future direction of price.
Some feel that these whales are basically rolling over funds or holding current positions under new security. Others feel that it can be a part of a large-scale sell-off scheme due to prevailing overall global market conditions.
Conclusion
The move of 80,009 BTC from inactive bitcoin accounts after 14 years is news big time. Whether it is a warning signal or mere reorganization, time only can provide the answer. But with persistent bearish projections, political stress, and rising investor anxiety, it is clear that news about whales like this must be watched closely.
