Genesis-Era Ethereum Wallet Moves 2,155 ETH After Ten Years of Inactivity
An Ethereum wallet dating back to the network's genesis block executed its first outbound transaction after remaining dormant for more than ten years. The address transferred nearly 2,155 ETH, valued at approximately $4.57 million to $4.59 million, to a fresh address following an initial test transfer. The original wallet received 1,400 ETH during the genesis block in July 2015 and an additional 755 ETH from Bitfinex on March 29, 2016. Within minutes of the first transfer, unsolicited scam-linked activity appeared on or near the address. Despite the immediate scam attempts, the main balance successfully reached its intended destination.
