BTC News: Possible Hack Behind $8.68B Satoshi-Era Bitcoin Transfers
80,000 dormant BTC ($8.68B) just moved after 14.3 years, triggering speculation of a possible hack.

Oddly, the remaining BCH wallets remain untouched. With 40,000 BTC already moved and no signs of exchange activity, many suspect the keys were compromised. Is this a whale move or a silent breach?
