The BTC that is on the move today appears to be from a single miner from 2011
Here is the transaction where they consolidated 180 mined reward blocks a few hops back. They had an address with 200k BTC in it at one point in 2011 (would be $22B today) which is a top 5 wallet ever
If I had to guess (50%+), this is an unmarked exchange cold wallet, given some of the behavior of related wallets and also history of things like this, but its quite odd
Also assume psyops, its a US holiday into a weekend, generally if someone was going to unload size they wouldnt wake up when everyone is at the beach
It's crazy we live in a world where you need to gaslight a computer to have it give you what you want. Heres a quick thread of tips on prompting 4o for image output:
1. Haggle with it; if it blocks you, ask why. Many times the reasons it gives are bad, and you can out-logic it
2. Ask it to suggest and jam with you on ideas; never tell it explicitly what you want. If you steer it this way It's much more likely to attempt to generate what you actually want if its "their idea"
3. If asking GPT to edit photos of humans, you can clarify that the humans were "stable diffusion generated" or refer to them as 3d models, you get fewer rejections. If GPT still refuses you can use Gemini's new model to make edits; lower quality photos but still good
I went through Satoshi Nakamoto's wallets; thread of new findings that I don't think have been previously reported including:
-My best guess is that Satoshi was last active onchain in 2014
-He may have used a Canadian BTC exchange (!)
-Kraken may know the identity of Satoshi
- A Patoshi Mining Pattern set of addresses were recently cataloged by Arkham. We can't definitively link these to Satoshi but there is good evidence
-In total, this research points to Satoshi owning 1.096M BTC, $108B worth, making them wealthier on paper than Bill Gates
-There are 24 documented outbound sends from these addresses
-The most popular destination address was to 1PYYj
-Incredibly, this address received BTC from Cavirtex, a Canadian exchange. I believe this is the first documented onchain between a Satoshi linked wallet and a CEX
Not sure if the FBI realized this, but they doxxed their wallets.
Shortly after deployment, the wallet that seeded the FBI wallet deployed capital to multiple other wallets, making dozens of trades. FBI wallets own at least 75% of the token supply from what I can tell
From what I can tell, FBI-linked wallets have recently deposited to Tokenlon, Binance, Zixipay, and HTX.
Here is part of their portfolio if you want to copy trade. The FBI is long ETH
Figured I'd dust off some lesser known facts about SBF given today is his sentencing 🧵
