..Who owns this wallet??

[0day]

Bitcoin transactions are anonymous so no one know that who is the owner of this address, even the sender to this address is also not aware that actually what is the name and contact address of that person.

Its a bitcoin talk forum,  i dont think youre informing anyone of anything by pointing that out.

I like to review interesting wallets like this but more often than not they are just exchanges.

While i was on the blockchain homepage i randomly clicked on one of the recent transactions
it lead me to this wallet https://blockchain.info/address/1GX28yLjVWux7ws4UQ9FB4MnLH4UKTPK2z

Weird looking one... total received 50 million dollars..

The interesting part is the payments received though, there is some sort of pattern

Any idea who or what could own this wallet?

what pattern?i dont see any something weird or not ormal,its just a big amount of bitcoins on bitcoin wallet and have received bitcoin each day. i wish can have that amount someday so anyone can trace who's have that address?

Closed my account on F2Pool and got my last scrap of BTC from that wallet.

If what you claim is true then that means its from mining pool, an exchange wallet can  also be the case but they always retain some balance to pay off withdrawals.

Interesting. During all this time, It always kept a balance close in BTC, but was sometimes emptied. Which demonstrates that it is a cold wallet address of some company that needs to be easily auditable.

The reality will not be far from what every other commenters have said, the wallet may belong to an exchange or a cloud mining company cause this are the only two such that is capable of receiving huge deposits as this. But the i identity can only be proved by only the sender or the receiver since we operate a decentralized system of transactions on blockchain.

Bitcoin wallets can be trace but no one knows it is belong to who. But someone owns this wallet who may working he/she freelance and accept payment for BTC. It may or it may not...

[bitfocus]

no way to know, you can never be sure if even anybody says 'I own that address" - but may be it is the address for any mining company or any whale, or any exchange.

There is no doubt on my side that this wallet belong to an exchange.
This huge number of bitcoin is really normal with some exchange.
But still there will be noone to know exactly but the person who holds the password/private key of the wallet.

I think that large amount belongs to a large investor who is in cryptocurrency to get a profit. it is not a strange thing in crypto, that is natural because in crypto, especially bitcoin has a lot of investors with large amounts of money.

Good question. Unfortunately, almost no blockchain explorer (think of walletexplorer.com, ethplorer.io etc.) gives you that info.  Even advanced blockchain investigation tools such as c-hound.ai do not have public address labeling (big exchanges are not taken into account - everybody knows them), at least for now.
