A Bitcoin wallet, inactive since January 2014, suddenly moved its entire treasure of 1,000 BTC on Tuesday, which today has an astonishing value of $116.6 million.
The entity behind the "1NzH...DrtpZo" wallet received the coins when Bitcoin was trading at around $847, meaning that its initial investment of approximately $847,000 has grown to over $116 million.
The funds were split and sent to four new addresses, a common technique for managing large sums, but the owner's identity and intentions remain a complete mystery.
This awakening is part of a broader trend of old wallets coming to life as the price of Bitcoin rises.
Last week, another wallet with 445 BTC came out of a nearly 13-year slumber and moved a portion of its coins, including a small transfer to Kraken, sparking speculation about a possible sale.
