According to @CoinMarketCap, two physical Casascius coins each holding 1,000 BTC were activated after more than 13 years of dormancy, transferring a combined 2,000 BTC worth approximately 180 million dollars. According to @CoinMarketCap, the coins' BTC was originally minted when Bitcoin traded between 3.88 and 11.69 dollars, indicating previously inactive early supply has moved on-chain.

According to the source, Satoshi Nakamoto’s net worth is claimed to be back above $130 billion with none of his BTC spent; independent on-chain research attributes roughly 1.0–1.1 million BTC to early Satoshi-era mining and shows no confirmed spends from the Patoshi set after 2010 (Sergio Demian Lerner, 2013; 2019). For traders, continued dormancy of these coins reduces effective circulating float and can intensify upside moves when demand rises, a dynamic supported by analyses of illiquid supply growth and falling exchange balances (Glassnode Research, 2020–2023). Confirmation of any supply-driven price impact should be monitored via exchange reserves and UTXO age-band activity to gauge potential sell pressure or liquidity tightness (Glassnode Research; CryptoQuant).
