The same Bitcoin whale reappeared the day the HBO trailer was released
Shortly after Bitcoin's launch in 2009, it was determined that over $3 million BTCs issued through mining were transferred to the Kraken exchange on Thursday. This process also drew attention when it coincided with the day HBO released the documentary trailer about Satoshi Nakamoto. On the other hand, two weeks ago, another whale moved BTCs, which extended to January 2009, for the first time in 15 years and 7 months.

10 days ago, the whale, which sent 5 BTC to the exchange, dating back 15 years, reappeared. This time, the transactions coincided with the day HBO released a documentary trailer with the claim that "we found Satoshi".
According to the information shared by the blockchain analysis platform Arkham, the whale in question owns Bitcoins worth over $72.5 million. With its latest transactions, the cryptocurrency exchange transferred 3 million 580 thousand dollars of BTC to Kraken. The last BTCs it transferred were released a month after the day Bitcoin was launched.
On the other hand, another whale transferred a total of 250 BTC from 5 separate wallets to new addresses two weeks ago. This wallet, which took action for the first time after 15 years and 7 months, was created in January 2009. At that time, Satoshi Nakamoto and his very limited environment knew about Bitcoin.
Arkham asks the question: Why did these Bitcoin whale wallets from the early days suddenly start to wake up?
