【Crypto World】An interesting data point. On-chain monitoring shows that an Ethereum pre-mined address that has been dormant for over 10 years has recently been activated. This address holds 2000 ETH, which, at current prices, has a market value close to 6 million USD.
The main reason this has attracted attention is the astonishing time span—this asset has not moved since 2015. Back then, ETH had just been launched, and one ETH was less than 1 USD. Those 2000 ETH were worth only about 600 yuan at that time. Fast forward to now, the appreciation is enough to make your scalp tingle.
Any movement of such large old addresses can easily trigger market attention. After all, no one knows whether it’s due to a mechanism upgrade, address verification, or a big dump.
