According to the ARKHAM analytical company in the area of security of the wallet, the security of the security of the wallet could be, according to the analytical company on-alcohol last week Bitcoins (BTC) worth bitcoins (BTC) worth bitcoins worth btcoins (BTC).
The chain data show that eight wallets, each holding 10,000 BTC since 2011, moved its resources to modern BC1Q-style addresses, which is a safer and more efficient format than the older Legacy 1-Prefix addresses.
New addresses are native Segwit formats that offer lower fees, improved transaction efficiency and stronger protection against certain types of exploitation.
Arkham, who described transfers, said there was no evidence that the whale was selling any bitcoins. Funds remain unaffected in new wallets, suggesting that this step was proactive and probably part of a wider operating security measure than a reaction to market activity.
Meanwhile, Ledger CTO Charles GuilleMet indicated on X that some OP_RETURN messages sent to these wallets displayed a legal announcement for the owners of these wallets.
Days before the transfers received old OP_return wallet messages that required a legal possession of coins if the owner did not respond to the set time limit.
While some were afraid of hack, GuilleMet noted that the sender had never shown a private access to the key and focused on many sleeping wallets, not just these eight. The timing suggests that the original owner was perhaps frightened by messages and may have acted preliminary to re -control.
“In the past, private keys have been threatened due to poor cryptographic practices, such as predictable use of non -well -being or poor quality generators, but it seems that it does not apply,” GuilleMet said in X Post.
“Pure coincidence: The timing may be accidental. The real owner of 80,000 BTC has seen OP_return messages and moved funds as preventive measures,” he added, together with other observations.
OP_RETURN is a bitcoin function that allows users to connect short messages or transaction data without affecting the transmission of actual coins.
