Current overview (not historical)

AI overview

An address that began receiving funds in September 2013—identified in a New York lawsuit as "Noah Doe #970"—made its first recorded transfer on October 18, sending 411.45 BTC (≈ $33.4 million) to an unlabelled address. Galaxy Research notes this is the wallet’s inaugural move in its 13.1‑year history. The transfer is part of a broader seizure effort that lists 39,069 dormant wallets as forfeited property. The move marks a significant shift from the wallet’s long dormancy, raising questions about the intended use of the newly released funds. While the lawsuit’s claim of ownership remains contested, the transaction underscores the scale of assets tied to the Noah Doe litigation and highlights the challenges of tracking and reallocating dormant cryptocurrency holdings.

    A Bitcoin wallet funded in September 2013 moved 411.45 BTC, worth about $33.4 million, to a new address on October 18, marking its first outgoing transfer after 13 years. The address, tagged by Galaxy Research as "Noah Doe #970," is one of 39,069 dormant wallets named in a New York lawsuit by pseudonymous plaintiff Noah Doe claiming the coins are abandoned property. The transfer went to an unlabeled address, not an exchange, and the coins remain there.
