Satoshi-Era Whale Dumps 9,000 BTC for $1B+ – Bitcoin Tumbles Below $117K
Satoshi-Era Whale Dumps 9,000 BTC for $1B+ – Bitcoin Tumbles Below $117K

A Bitcoin whale from the Satoshi era just unloaded a staggering 9,000 BTC—cashing out over $1 billion as prices dipped under $117,000. The move sent shockwaves through the market, proving even crypto’s old guard isn’t immune to profit-taking panic.
Timing is everything—or just dumb luck. While retail traders scrambled, this anonymous whale pocketed generational wealth. Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts are still trying to explain why they called Bitcoin ‘dead’ at $60K.
One thing’s clear: When the OGs sell, markets listen. Whether this triggers a deeper correction or just another buy-the-dip frenzy depends on who’s holding the bag—institutional whales or diamond-handed degenerates.
