222<p>Every day, Bitcoin Who’s Who gets emails about scams, fraud and suspicious Bitcoin activity. But every once in a while, a scammer manages to create a moment of perfect irony: they send a Bitcoin extortion email <strong>directly to Bitcoin Who’s Who</strong>—complete with the wallet address they want us to investigate.</p>

244<p>Something unusual is happening on the Bitcoin blockchain: coins that have been sitting untouched for years — in some cases more than a decade — are starting to move again.</p>
245
246
247
248<p>That doesn&#8217;
248t necessarily mean Bitcoin&#8217;s earliest holders are rushing to sell. In fact, the blockchain often gives us no way to know why a dormant address suddenly becomes active. But the clustering of these movements is interesting enough to raise a bigger question:</p>
249
250
251
252<p><strong>Why are so many old Bitcoin addresses waking up now?</strong></p>

338<p>The recent <strong>
338COLDCARD hack</strong> has been a painful reminder that even experienced Bitcoin users can become victims of sophisticated attacks.</p>
339
340
341
342<p>First and foremost, our thoughts are with everyone affected. We know that losing access to your Bitcoin is more than a financial setback, it can be an incredibly stressful and frustrating experience.</p>
343
344
345
346<p>Many victims have already reported the wallet addresses involved to <strong>BitcoinWho&#8217;sWho.com</strong>, helping alert the community to suspicious activity. If you&#8217;ve done that, thank you. Community reporting plays an important role in helping others avoid the same fate.</p>
