The transfer involved 350 BTC, valued at $28 million, from seven miner wallets that had been inactive for 16.5 years. The coins were earned through mining in March 2010, and the movement occurred six hours ago.
That puts Bitcoin's early mining supply back in motion and makes the event relevant to on-chain monitoring. The transfer alone does not establish a sale or an exchange deposit.
