An early Bitcoin miner sold 100 ancient Bitcoins and made a profit of US$3.5 million.
A early Bitcoin miner who mined during the era of Satoshi Nakamoto recently earned approximately $3.5 million in profit by selling 100 BTC. Benjamin Brannan, the Business Development Manager of CryptoQuant, revealed that these tokens are 13 years old and were initially worth only $1 in total. The early Bitcoin miner transferred the 100 BTC on November 7th when the price of Bitcoin was around $35,000. It is estimated that the eventual sale of all the tokens brought the miner over $3.5 million in profit. (beincrypto)
