The wallets moved 50 BTC each to a new address. The 100 BTC were worth about $6 in total when mined.
Two Bitcoin (BTC) wallets that had been inactive for more than 16 years moved a combined 100 BTC to a new address.
The wallets were linked to 50 BTC mining rewards each, dated Sept. 19 and Sept. 8, 2010. The 100 BTC were worth about $6 in total when mined.
The coins went to one new wallet rather than directly to an exchange. The transfer alone does not establish that they were sold.
A previous dormant-wallet transfer involving 416.6941 BTC came from wallets inactive for 12 and 13 years. The newly flagged transfer involved fewer BTC, but the wallets had been inactive longer.
