About 23, 000 (13,103.99 and 9,878) worth of Ethereum were transferred from two accounts that have been inactive for over 4 years from crypto trading platforms Genesis and Poloniex.
Investors in cryptocurrencies often remain with Bitcoin and Ethereum to avoid temporary losses during bear markets. As a consequence, the community is intrigued by the big movement of such assets and tries to understand the motivation behind it.
Investors are perplexed when two accounts that had been inactive for more than four years unexpectedly reactivated to send 22,982 ETH to new addresses. The ETH coins in issue were discovered moving 13,103.99 ETH and 9,878 ETH, respectively, from the trading platforms Genesis and Poloniex.
Peckshield, a blockchain researcher, discovered that the last transaction involving the ETH coins in issue occurred in October 2018, when the price of ETH was somewhere between $190 and $230. The asset’s price per ETH was close to $1,200 on the transfer day.
