A Bitcoin whale who accumulated 5,000 BTC over a decade ago just offloaded another 500 BTC, pocketing $47.77M at current prices. That's a striking contrast to the original acquisition cost—back when BTC was trading around $332, those 5,000 coins cost just $1.66M to accumulate. The selling spree kicked off in early December 2024, with this holder dumping 2,500 BTC (worth roughly $265M) since then at varying average price points. This pattern raises questions: Is this a strategic exit, or simply taking profits after years of explosive appreciation? Either way, whale movements on this scale tend to signal important market sentiment shifts worth monitoring.

Selling off again? Could it be that this whale is liquidating their holdings...

Bro, this cash-out move is brutal - been accumulating since $332 and now it's printing money... but dumping 2500 coins at once, makes me think they're really about to exit?

Damn, going from $1.66M to $265M, that must feel amazing... but now that so much is being dumped out, it feels like a change is coming.
