The transfer follows Galaxy Digital’s sale of over 80,000 BTC last week, the largest known Bitcoin liquidation, for a Satoshi-era investor who reactivated his wallet after 14 years of dormancy.
Bitcoin briefly plunged to $115,000 following Galaxy’s earlier BTC move but rebounded above $119,000 once the selling pressure eased. At press time, it was trading at $117,834, down 1.5% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko.
