The dormant-coin claim battle has begun—ancient giant whales are probably rummaging through their private key backup files.

June 3rd, the Bitcoin wallet that had been silent since 2011 suddenly transferred out 35.55 BTC (approximately $2.54 million), to prove it was not abandoned. Previously, it was a defendant in a lawsuit in New York, claiming that nearly 3.8 million dormant Bitcoins are abandoned property. At the same time, there are reports that an American man and two companies have filed ownership lawsuits over more than 39,000 dormant addresses.
