The post ETH Whale Wakes Up After 10 Years, Turns $443 Into $2.8M appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
A wallet that received 1,430 ETH during the 2015 Ethereum presale has become active after more than 10 years of dormancy. The tokens were originally purchased for just $443 at roughly $0.31 per ETH and are now valued at about $2.81 million at current market prices near $1,965. The holder first attempted a 1 ETH test transaction to Gemini, which initially failed due to gas settings, before successfully transferring 1,428 ETH. The move highlights both the scale of early crypto returns and the importance of careful transaction management after long inactivity.
