The owner of the wallet, who has an account of $ 720 million in BTC, began to move funds after a long period of inactivity

Anonymous bitcoin-purse, which for more than four years kept the amount of 111,114.62 BTC or about $ 720 million, again "revived". As the user Reddit under the nickname "sick_silk", the wallet did not show activity for 4 years and 5 months, but now its owner began to move funds to 100 BTC to different addresses. The last transactions, according to the user, were committed to the Binance exchange.

Sick_silk suggested that the purse may belong to either the bankrupt Mt. Gox or a closed illegal trading platform SilkRoad. Why? Yes, it just stopped using the purse at the time when the largest stock exchange in the world was hacked (Mt. Gox), and the SilkRoad site was closed by FBI employees.

«Cold wallet Mt. Gox was withdrawn or still owned by Mt. Gox. Funds from the wallet moved in March 2014, that is, just a month after Mt. Gox filed for bankruptcy in February, "- wrote the user Reddit. The connection of the wallet to SilkRoad, he also does not exclude, referring to the data of the thematic forum Bitcointalk.

The assumption that the wallet belongs to Mt. Gox was supported by the WizSec cybersecurity firm. In particular, its representatives believe that activation of the bitcoin-purse is connected with the process of civil rehabilitation of Mt. Gox and the payment of funds to creditors.

The sick_silk user has linked most of the money transfers from an anonymous wallet in the form of a graphic card, where red dots denote recent transactions that took place less than a month ago, blue ones - less than a year, green ones - more than a year.

All these movements of BTC, said one of the creditors of the Mt. Gox Kim Nilsson, can seriously affect the entire crypto-currency market, and excessive flow of funds can even bring it down. And while it is still unknown who owns this purse, one thing is clear - its owner has enough power to move the market in one direction or another.
