🐋 A nine-year-old miner is still active: an ETH OG who held for 9 years has reportedly liquidated their entire position, making a 151.7x return!
According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi (as reposted by BlockBeats):
• Withdrew 3,000 ETH from Gemini 9 years ago at a cost of just about $18.82 per ETH, worth $56,400 in total at the time
• Deposited the final 1,000 ETH 9 hours ago; the average deposit price across all transfers was $2,874.17
• If all of it was sold, the profit would be about $8.566 million
📌 The timing is even more interesting: they started depositing ETH in batches in August 2025, and it took 14 months to finish moving the final batch—more like splitting up orders to exit during a rebound window. In early October, two other OGs who had held for nine years also liquidated 9,618 and 13,330 ETH, respectively.
⚖️ On the other hand: Bitmine just deposited 159,728 ETH (about $390 million) into staking. The staking queue stands at 1.33 million ETH, with a wait of over 23 days, while only 149,000 ETH are queued to exit, with a wait of under 4 days—the old guard is selling while new money is being locked up.
Current prices: ETH around $2,455 (24h +2.4%), BTC around $82,964, Fear & Greed Index at 63 (Greed).
