Dormant $1.9M Bitcoin tied to New York lawsuit mov

#World Cup Predictions: 100,000 USDT Daily #BTC Prophet: 20-Day 380 Million HTX Challenge #TradFi Trading Strategies Sharing Challenge Dormant $1.9M Bitcoin tied to New York lawsuit moves after nearly 15 years A dormant Bitcoin address transferred 30 $BTC worth about $1.88 million for the first time in almost 15 years. Bitcoin address "1KV47" made its first outgoing transfer on Saturday since receiving 30 $BTC in August 2011, blockchain data shared by Galaxy Research shows. The address is among 39,069 listed in a New York lawsuit filed by "Noah Doe" and two Wyoming-based companies seeking ownership of dormant Bitcoin holdings. The case could test how inactive cryptocurrency holdings are treated under the state's lost-property law. The listed addresses include those widely associated with Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto and collectively hold an estimated 3.7 million $BTC worth about $234 billion, according to Sani, founder of analytics platform Timechain Index. More dormant Bitcoin addresses tied to the New York lawsuit have been waking up, with 31 of them moving 17,527 $BTC in June, up from five that transferred 4,834 $BTC in February, according to Galaxy Digital head of research Alex Thorn. Source: Alex Thorn Can dormant Bitcoin holdings be considered “lost” property? On Friday, a defendant, identifying themselves as “John Doe 33,” who claims to control one of the dormant Bitcoin addresses, filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, arguing that Bitcoin addresses are merely data strings that cannot be sued. A New York court can adjudicate rights in intangible property, but it does not have the authority to convert public addresses into “found” property just because the plaintiff copied these addresses to a hard drive, Edwin Mata, lawyer and CEO of tokenization platform Brickken, told Cointelegraph.
