Early Crypto Miner Moves 50 BTC Worth Over $3 Million After 14 Years of Inactivity, Part of Transfer Ends Up at Coinbase

A person who mined Bitcoin early on moved 50 BTC, worth over $3 million, after 14 years of not touching them. The transfer included sending some of the Bitcoin to the Coinbase exchange. This is one of the few instances of Bitcoin from the "Satoshi era" being moved, with other significant transfers happening in 2023. The miner received the Bitcoin as a reward in April 2010, during the period when Bitcoin's creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, was active on online forums.
