In 2024, five previously untouched Bitcoin rewards from 2009 were spent, valued at 250 BTC at the time. These transfers, originating from outdated addresses, are rare, despite there being a large amount of unspent rewards from that year. There are still 90,850.10 BTC in unspent 2009 rewards worth $8.9 billion. These 2009 transactions are particularly significant and uncommon, with the last occurrence happening in April 2022. Other dormant Bitcoin transactions from different years have also occurred in 2024. These early transactions highlight the mysterious presence of early Bitcoin adopters and the role of dormant wallets in the ecosystem.
