That would be a miner's address. Bitcoin miners get a mining reward of 25BTC plus some extra from the transaction fees.

Do some research on bitcoin and how it works behind the scenes, there is info about it everywhere on the internet.

A new adress can have more bitcoin or few bitcoin.
A old adress does not mean it contains more Bitcoins..

Maybe he is doing research by asking question on relevant internet forum and in appropriate board for such questions.

not really, all mineable bitcoins is 21million in total and currently there are only 15.2million and the last bitcoin will be mined in the year 2140 (estimate)

English  ::) . If you mean, tracking coins , you can use taint analysis. Mixers' have many different funded address, which is why its very hard to track them, so no you can't track individual mixer addresses' owners.

whenever a block is mined, the miner pool s awarded with a block of bitcoins. usually only the pools get this as it is really unlikely for a single miner to get this block.

I think it must be a address of a miner pool, or some solo mining.

Do some research on bitcoin and how it works behind the scenes, there is info about it everywhere on the internet.

Don't you think it's also a kind of research to ask on this forum? Isn't this forum about bitcoin too?

It is address of some miners/mining farm.
This video in a very accessible way explains how the whole process is working:

It is a kind of research, but this is something that is well documented and there are many places to learn about it. You can find out just by googling it. To me, the forum is like a last resort, for when you actually can't find the answer to something, and usually that something is obscure or specific to certain cases. You shouldn't really be asking generic questions here, both because this is something that someone who puts in just a little bit of effort can find and because posting such threads invite spammers to repeat themselves for 50 pages.

I can agree with you on your 2nd point that posting such generic questions may give spammers a chance to show their ability of spamming, but maybe some people can't find some things by their own because they are really new to this thing (bitcoin) and that is why they ask those questions on the forum for getting some help finding more information about it.

How hard is it for someone to google something? If you just google the title of this thread, the first several links will tell you the answer that you need.

Yeah it isn't so hard actually to find something in google, maybe OP is quite lazy doing that then.
