It's probably a hedge fund that has invested a small portion of their funds and doesn't understand that you shouldn't keep it all in one address because the blockchain is public and everyone can see what you've done. Or may be a billionaire who just invested a significant fraction of his wealth in Bitcoin? Hedge fund managers are not that stupid to keep all their coins in one wallet. Before they do any investment, they carefully do the research about its potential implications. Well.. my worst fear is that this wallet belongs to some mafia don. I agree. This is likely to be an individual who can afford to invest that much money in something as unsure as btc. I don't think this is a blind decision though because for you to put that much money on the table, you have to be prepared and aware of the risks. So that's a calculated investment hoping for a bigger return

You sir are really THE idiot of the thread. Did you even READ any of the posts here? It's been proven 1000x times that it's just Huobi exchange cold wallet.

Well if it's Huobi or some other big exchange or hedge fund, they're surely trying to fulfill large individual demands, precisely not to make their moves obvious. Newcomers finally finding their way into bitcoin or whales simply about to dump their huge bags of alts? I guess in the big picture, these moves won't matter. But they certainly help prove that Bitcoin in no way is losing its attraction. All the so-called big sell offs have nothing compared to this amount. I can feel the jealousy from Bitcoin Cash on this type of news!

Don't you think that excessive printing of Tether tokens was the primary cause behind bitcoin's unstoppable price growth in late November and December? So things just returned to kind of normal, where they should have been without Tether. But I'm curious what happened to these tokens and those who bought them. To balance supply and demand they should have been destroyed (burned).

We're gonna try this again. The story isn't who or what entity recently amassed a huge amount of bitcoins. The REAL story is who the fuck is controlling the narrative? https://www.infowars.com/bitcoin-surging-after-mystery-trader-buys-344-million-in-cryptocurrency/“Not sure who that big buyer was but many have bought this dip and have added since the rebound and additional regulatory clarity in the US and Asia,” Alex Sunnarborg, founding partner of Tetras Capital said, as quoted by Marketwatch. Seriously? InfoWars quoted MarketWatch? https://www.marketwatch.com/story/anonymous-trader-buys-400-million-of-bitcoin-2018-02-16That's odd. My sources, the same FUCKIN INTERNET they use, contributes the source two days priors to ... https://www.investopedia.com/news/anonymous-cryptocurrency-enthusiast-bought-400-million-bitcoin/It gets better ... First, Alex Sunnarborg is quoted by Investopedia, then two laters, MarketWatch picks up the story and sites Alex verbatim. Now, its SiliconANGLE Media stating that Alex told MarketWatch the exact same phrase two days after it was first penned by Investopedia. What next? Satoshi rising from the grave so to quote Alex's comments that was given to SiliconANGLE during an inclusive interview? http://www.coindaily.co/2018/02/17/trader-btfd-and-scoops-up-400-million-in-bitcoin/Yep, another blockchain expect advancing the truism sans doing one iota of research like the astute posters on this thread have done. Imagine, if you will, some bitcoin scientist on the top floor of some London office building, let's say, muses about who the whale in question is after giving Satoshi head after Satoshi proved beyond doubt to said scientist that he is indeed Satoshi regardless if some future Russian clown cites signalling theory in proving that he's not.

If Roger Ver wants, he'll move $1 billion worth of BCH without any problems, so it's not that what you say makes any sense, especially when it comes to the other part of your post. If an exchange accumulates a huge sum of funds in one single wallet, it doesn't mean that a large player entered the game or whatever. Huobi could have just done so for convenience purposes, although it isn't safe for an exchange or any other entities to store that many funds in just one single address. For that reason I believe that it's just a matter of time (probably weeks) before they will redistribute these coins in a more efficient and safer manner.

Wow that's huge announcement, seems he know now is a good to time time invest after the price down much from the peak.
I do not see any changes with this purchase, with that amount there may be a flash pump. but only a few percent rise. is this true? or just an issue to increase purchases.

Wow, thanks for this information. I really think that this would be a great news to bitcoin and cryptocurrency. And right now, good things are coming. And those bad things, bitcoin is about to forget that. I can say that bitcoin is now recovering. A lot of people are claiming this to be an exchange and on some other thread, some are claiming it to be one of those bitfinex ways, if you know what I mean. Well, people will say so many things, but the thing is they are all speculations and we cannot really trace the account to anyone. If it is an exchange like some people are saying, which I want to believe it to be, no shit, but for a single person, I totally doubt and like someone said, pro investors will never draw attention to themselves that way.

regardless of the walletexplorer.com proof, whenever you purchase large amount of bitcoin you don't receive it in a transaction like this f60bb680d4b11a800fa72597dcd21eb803184f064bcf0bb7fb64c2d55d991c42 with 59 inputs and only 1 output any kind of purchase will always have a change address ie. 2 outputs. additionally when you purchase from exchanges you can not withdraw 6000 BTC at a time! this behavior can only be coming from an exchange service which is moving funds from a lot of addresses to their multisignature cold storage. p.s. this is what a whale looks like: https://btc.com/bc1q9sh6544xls87x7skjzyfhkty4wq7z76vn7qzq9That's really a valid point.This explanation seems to be logical since we have not seen any big hike in bitcoin prices despite being bitcoin bought in such a huge volume at once.So,probably this would be an exchange's move to its wallet thus making no difference in bitcoin price.

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/anonymous-trader-buys-400-million-of-bitcoin-2018-02-16Go big or go home. That’s the motto of one mysterious investor who put his chips on the table, buying close to $400 million of the No.1 digital currency, bitcoin.
The purchase comes as cryptocurrencies are making a comeback after a dreadful start to 2018.
“Not sure who that big buyer was but many have bought this dip and have added since the rebound and additional regulatory clarity in the U.S. and Asia,” Alex Sunnarborg, Founding Partner of Tetras Capital said.
The unknown trader with the bitcoin address 3Cbq7aT1tY8kMxWLbitaG7yT6bPbKChq64 purchased the coins between Feb. 9 and Feb. 12, taking his bitcoin balance from 55,000 coins to more than 96,000. It's probably a hedge fund that has invested a small portion of their funds and doesn't understand that you shouldn't keep it all in one address because the blockchain is public and everyone can see what you've done. I think there's too much of manipulation with Bitcoin market. Why that was made public isn't mysterious, either they intended to cause a massive bullish market activity to make BTC rapidly recover from the long correction or they were just showing off. However, I would say that it did have some psychological effect on those who helped raise the market back to the 8k-10k range.

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/bitcoin-whales-dump-100-million-of-digital-currency-in-24-hours-2018-04-17The price of bitcoin took a dive Tuesday, falling by more than $200 is less than 20 minutes, which could have been the result of a single seller who unloaded a sizeable amount of the digital currency.
The balance of wallet 3D2oetdNuZUqQHPJmcMDDHYoqkyNVsFk9r — an anonymous digital account which is valued at $1.49 billion — fell by 6,500 bitcoin Tuesday, with the average sale price sale being $8,146.70, a total value of just over $50 million, according to bitinfocharts. https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMarkets/comments/4x3frd/will_somebody_confirm_here_when_they_actually/d6cbzgj/3D2oetdNuZUqQHPJmcMDDHYoqkyNVsFk9r seeds 1Kr6QSydW9bFQG1mXiPNNu6WpJGmUa9i1g, ergo a sperm whale. Market moves lower by 2K sans a whale and it's mundane news; Chinese miner funds BFNX causing the market to drop by U$200 and the sky's falling.

So meaning weak hands will regret after this bad market. 'this crazy man who bough such surprising amount during panic time explain plainly that bitcoin will recover soon if not then, why would you buy 400$ million ammount of bitcoin if it will put you down? Congrats to the strong ones.

Even the deep he sees the crypto potential and this actually has a good effect on the bitcoin market movement😊
