A long-dormant Bitcoin (BTC) address moved 4,500 BTC worth approximately $378.79 million to an unidentified receiving wallet after remaining inactive for more than four years, according to KuCoin. The transfer was completed directly on the Bitcoin network, and tracking platforms reported no subsequent deposit flows to centralized crypto exchanges as of September 28, 2026.
