💰 Satoshi-Era BTC Sale: $9B and a Market Stress Test



🐋 Galaxy Digital executed a historic transaction — selling 80,009 BTC from 2011-era wallets (~$9 billion).
— The sale sparked speculation: was it Roger Ver, or even Satoshi Nakamoto himself?
— Galaxy stated it was a client’s “legacy planning” strategy.

📉 BTC briefly dipped to $115K, then rebounded to $117.3K.
— The large volume was distributed across Binance, Bitstamp, Bybit, OKEx, and others.

📊 Market commentary:
— Theya: “The market held strong — a sign of maturity.”
— Jason Williams: “BTC can keep rising, unless selling accelerates.”

⚠️ About 12,000 BTC from this batch remain. If they hit the market, volatility may follow.

🔍 Conclusion:
Despite the scale of the sale, the market stayed resilient. This was one of those moments that separate a speculative bubble from a true bull cycle.
