7-Year Dormant Bitcoin Whale Moves 2,043 BTC as Whales Reawaken
On Feb. 10, 2026, CryptoQuant analyst J.A. highlighted that a Bitcoin wallet inactive for seven years moved 2,043 BTC, joining a wider trend of wallets idle for more than a year becoming active again. The transfer stands out both for its size and the length of dormancy, and was flagged by on-chain metrics that track long-term holder behavior. Such large, long-dormant transfers matter because they can tighten available supply or mark profit-taking and repositioning by major holders. With the current price outlook tilting positive, these reactivations may reinforce bullish sentiment while adding short-term volatility. Traders and analysts will likely watch subsequent on-chain flows and exchange inflows to see whether this is redistribution, accumulation, or a precursor to further selling.
