Who is the Mysterious BTC Whale?

While it remains unclear whether the accumulated BTC is newly purchased or simply transferred from external wallets, the substantial amount has sparked widespread speculation, with various theories being discussed on platforms like Reddit and X.

Among the speculations, a prominent theory suggests that the transfers might be internal fund movements within the cryptocurrency exchange BitMEX.

This is inferred from the fact that many sending addresses are linked to BitMEX. Notably, numerous sending addresses start with "bc1qmex~".

BitMEX had announced on October 31, 2023, that it would reissue Bitcoin deposit addresses to reduce user withdrawal fees, leading to the removal of traditional vanity addresses like "3BMEX" and "bc1qmex".

This makes the likelihood of BitMEX involvement quite high.

However, discussions on popular international forums like Reddit have also suggested that these could be purchases made through BitMEX, with speculations ranging from BlackRock making the purchases to an individual like "CZ" (Changpeng Zhao) being involved.

As of now, the identity of this Bitcoin whale remains unknown. However, there is a possibility that more details may emerge in the future, making it a situation to watch closely for new reports or developments.
