Bitcoin is trading at $108,053, down nearly 1% in the last 24 hours after failing to break above the recent high of $109,142.23 convincingly. With the cryptocurrency hovering just 3.4% below its ATH, market participants question the longevity of the bull cycle. $8.6 Billion Awakening Eight long-dormant Bitcoin wallets, untouched since 2011, collectively moved over $8.6 billion worth of BTC. Each wallet held exactly 10,000 BTC, acquired initially at dirt-cheap prices between $0.78 and $3.37, representing a staggering 137,179x return. A single entity moved $8.6 BILLION of BTC from 8 addresses in the past day. All of the Bitcoin was moved into the original wallets on either 2nd April or 4th May 2011 and has been held for over 14 years. Currently, the Bitcoin is sitting in 8 new addresses and has not been… pic.twitter.com/nm53tVRzLJ — Arkham (@arkham) July 4, 2025 What’s most concerning is the synchronized movement of these wallets, which hadn’t seen any activity for over 14 years. The sudden reappearance left investors questioning if this is coordinated profit-taking or state-level asset mobilization. Coinbase’s Head of Product, Conor Grogan, even hinted that the transactions could be a result of a potential hack. The executive pointed to a suspicious Bitcoin Cash (BCH) test transaction conducted just hours before the BTC transfers. If true (again, I'm speculating on straws here), this would be by far the largest heist in human history — Conor (@jconorgrogan) July 4, 2025 Hackers often use similar techniques of probing to confirm access to private keys before making major moves. “If true… this would be by far the largest heist in human history,” Grogan posted on X. While Grogan’s theory adds further insight into the abnormal behavior, the fact that other BCH wallets tied to the same entity remain untouched has further fueled speculation. Whale Exodus & Retail Influx According to analyst Amr Taha, the July market structure suggests that whales may be exiting while retail investors pile in. Entities holding over 10,000 BTC reportedly offloaded 12,000 BTC on July 3rd alone, with the 1,000–10,000 BTC cohort selling an additional 14,000 BTC since June 30. This distribution pattern often marks a local top or mid-cycle cooling. Meanwhile, short-term holders, typically retail, have added 382,000 BTC to their portfolios in early July, signaling renewed optimism. Long-term holders, however, are trimming their exposure, a sign of profit booking at current prices. Further, Binance Futures’ Open Interest has failed to break the $11.5 billion resistance level decisively, mirroring conditions seen on June 10th. The inability to sustain momentum on derivatives markets highlights that bears are at play. Technical Outlook: MACD, RSI, and Fibonacci Levels On the daily chart, Bitcoin’s MACD is in neutral territory — the signal and MACD lines are converging with no clear bullish crossover in sight, suggesting a pause in upward momentum. Meanwhile, the RSI  is at 54, reflecting indecision. Neither overbought nor oversold, the RSI hints at a wait-and-watch mood among traders. BTC 1D Chart | Source: TradingView More critically, Bitcoin is attempting breakout over the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level ($107,964). The next key Fibonacci target lies at 1.618 ($118,185), and if bulls can reclaim momentum, a move toward $130K (2.618 level) or even $150K (4.236) is conceivable. However, failure to hold above $107K could see Bitcoin revisit support near $101K (0.382 level) or even $98K (swing low). If $107K holds and the macro backdrop remains favorable, bulls may yet charge toward the $118K–$130K range. But if sentiment deteriorates further,  especially if the $8.6 billion transfer is confirmed to be malicious, a sharp correction could be imminent.next The post Is Bitcoin Rally Over? $8B Wallet Hack, Holders Retreat appeared first on Coinspeaker.

The post 80,000 BTC Moved After 14 Years: Mystery Transfer or Massive Hack? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Something strange just happened in the Bitcoin world this week as nearly 80,000 Bitcoin, mined more than 14 years ago, suddenly moved across eight dormant wallets, making it the largest known transfer of so-called “Satoshi-era” BTC in history.  Now, experts are wondering: Was this a planned move, or could it be the biggest crypto hack ever? Let’s break it down! Old Satoshi-Era Coins Come Alive On July 4, 2025, blockchain watchers were shocked to see 80,000 BTC transferred from eight wallets that had been inactive since 2011.  Two of them, each containing 20,000 BTC, were originally funded when Bitcoin was worth just $0.78 per coin. Meanwhile, today, each wallet now holds over $1.1 billion worth of BTC. Interestingly, the coins haven’t been moved since reaching these new wallets, and no individual or company has claimed ownership. However, the sudden movement has raised immediate questions. Who’s Behind the Transfer? The on-chain analysis firm Arkham said all eight wallets seem to belong to one single entity. The BTC was sent to fresh wallets using newer, cheaper address formats.  Most of the coins didn’t go to exchanges, they just moved to new addresses. And this has raised concerns. Now, the big question has arisen: Was this transfer legitimate, or was it a hack? That’s what Conor Grogan, head of product at Coinbase, is wondering. In an X post, Grogan floated the idea that this could be the largest crypto heist in history if those wallets were compromised. He pointed to one suspicious clue: a small Bitcoin Cash (BCH) transaction made from one of the whale wallets about 14 hours before the main BTC transfer. According to Grogan, this may have been a way to secretly test whether the wallet’s private keys still worked. While, Grogan made it clear that this is just speculation, not proof. But he added, “If this really was a hack,” Grogan said, “it could be the biggest theft in

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency payment network created to implement Bitcoin's core idea of facilitating peer-to-peer payments for everyday transactions rather than becoming a preferred store of value like Bitcoin (BTC).

Despite being the gold standard of the crypto world, Bitcoin has some inherent problems that are widely debated in the public domain. Its limited 1 MB block size is the most well-known of these, making it unscalable. This shortcoming has caused a notable rise in Bitcoin's transaction fees.

A section of the Bitcoin network's participants had been pushing for larger blocks as early as 2010. However, seeing no result from their efforts, this group hard-forked Bitcoin Cash from the Bitcoin blockchain on August 1, 2017. Bitcoin Cash was launched with an 8 MB block size limit, later expanding to 32 MB in 2018.

The main aim of Bitcoin Cash is to fulfill the original purpose of Bitcoin. Its team constantly strives to make BCH a cheaper, faster, scalable, and easy-to-use peer-to-peer electronic cash system. It also doesn't hold back regarding increasing block sizes or making other updates to keep the project well-aligned with its core objective. Bitcoin Cash works like Bitcoin, as it can be easily transferred from one individual to another without financial intermediaries or censorship.

BCH token holders can send and receive BCH through their digital wallets using the unique public keys associated with the latter. As a result, BCH transactions are settled almost instantly and involve a lower average transfer fee. Some well-known businesses that accept Bitcoin Cash for their goods and services are Twitch, Newegg, CyberGhost VPN, SlingTV, Namecheap, airBaltic, ALFAtop, Menufy, SatoshiDice, CoinRemitter, and eGifter.

How does BCH work?

Bitcoin Cash's workings are quite similar to that of Bitcoin. The primary difference is the bigger block size, allowing higher transaction speeds and lower fees. That said, larger block sizes make audit and storage expensive and lead to difficulties downloading a copy of the blockchain.

Like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash also uses a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus model for securing its network. Entities called miners compete against each other to process transactions and add new blocks to the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. They employ complex computing devices for this purpose. The hashing algorithm of Bitcoin Cash is SHA-256, the same as that of Bitcoin.

One of the biggest differentiators between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash is the "difficulty adjustment" for mining new blocks. While the Bitcoin software adjusts this difficulty factor every 2,016 blocks, it's done every 10 minutes in Bitcoin Cash.

The frequent updates aim to provide a clearer understanding of the required computing power for BCH mining. Miners of Bitcoin Cash receive rewards in the form of new BCH coins and transaction fees for their efforts in adding blocks. Bitcoin Cash also supports smart contracts, enabling the creation of decentralized applications (DApps) on its blockchain. Notable DApps built on Bitcoin Cash include CashFusion, CashScript, eatBCH, Flipstarter, AnyHedge, Libauth, Spedn, and Fountainhead.

Bitcoin Cash has a decentralized, low-cost, high-throughput, easy-to-use network for BCH transactions. Any changes required on its mainnet involve many nodes and a high level of consensus. This restricts trial-and-error processes, which are a must for innovation.

Launched in July 2021, Smart Bitcoin Cash or SmartBCH is a side chain of Bitcoin Cash created to explore new ideas and unlock new possibilities. It's compatible with Web3 API and Ethereum's EVM, offering high throughput for DApps, in a secure, decentralized, and fast environment. The side chain doesn't have any new tokens. Its native token is BCH, and all gas fees on the network are paid in BCH.

BCH price and tokenomics

Like Bitcoin, the maximum supply of Bitcoin Cash has a hard cap of 21 million coins. Of these, 19.17 million were in circulation at the time of writing. There are 17.12 million BCH holding addresses at press time, with the top 10 addresses holding nearly 2.3 million BCH. When Bitcoin Cash hard forked from Bitcoin, almost 16.5 million BCH coins were distributed amongst existing BTC holders at 1:1.

Every time a BCH miner successfully adds a new block to the Bitcoin Cash blockchain, s/he is awarded BCH coins as a reward. This process brings new BCH coins into the circulating supply. Bitcoin Cash has a deflationary mechanism called "halving," like Bitcoin. As per this mechanism, the block mining rewards are halved every 210,000 blocks or approximately four years. It shares Bitcoin's transaction history in this regard up to August 1, 2017, the day of its launch.

The last Bitcoin Cash halving happened in April 2020, which reduced the mining rewards from 12.5 BCH per block to 6.25 BCH. The next halving event is expected to occur in 2024, reducing the BCH mining reward to 3.125 BCH per block.

BCH developments

The most significant event in Bitcoin Cash's history was the 2018 hard fork, resulting in the creation of Bitcoin SV (BSV) on November 15, 2018. This split led to a significant drop in BCH's price from $444 to an all-time low of $76 on December 16, 2018. The hard fork emerged as a "civil war" between two competing camps within the Bitcoin Cash ecosystem. One camp, led by Roger Ver and Bitmain's Jihan Wu, supported the Bitcoin ABC software, maintaining a 32 MB block size. In contrast, the other camp, led by Craig Steven Wright and Calvin Ayre, favored Bitcoin SV with a 128 MB block size.

Another significant development for Bitcoin Cash occurred in March 2020 when Tether (USDT) stablecoin was launched on its blockchain through the SLP (simple ledger protocol) token standard. This implementation allowed users to transact USDT on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain alongside networks like EOS, Ethereum, Tron, Algorand, Liquid Network, and Omni.

About the founders

Network participants and miners collectively founded Bitcoin Cash in the Bitcoin ecosystem. These included prominent names like Roger Ver, Amaury Sechet, Bitmain, ViaBTC, and Craig Wright.

All these participants were against the proposed Segwit2x upgrade on Bitcoin, which meant increasing its capacity. They preferred increasing Bitcoin's block size to 8 MB instead. However, unable to fulfill their demand, this group launched a hard fork of Bitcoin on August 1, 2017, and named it Bitcoin Cash.
