2010 年神秘比特币鲸鱼的故事：揭示了持续清算的模式

Onchain 分析师正在关注本月发生的重大鲸鱼交易，他们透露，2010 年区块奖励中的 3,000 个比特币已被转移，这是近十四年来的首次。

然而，许多人可能没有意识到，从 2010 年开始的一系列集体奖励支付对于这只特定的鲸鱼来说并不是什么新活动，它多年来一直在不断地清算代币。

追踪比特币巨鲸的起源

过去一周，鲸鱼转移了 1,000 BTC，与该加密资产自 2021 年以来首次突破最高价格点一致。就在三天前，同一头鲸鱼转移了 2,000 BTC，这些资金来自可追溯至 2010 年的区块奖励具体来说，3 月 5 日，转移的区块源自区块高度 71,897 至 91,568 之间的序列，尽管不是连续的顺序。

当天迁移的20个区块奖励全部在区块高度833,219处得到确认。

3 月 1 日的交易涉及 2010 年的 40 个区块奖励，全部最终确定在区块 832,648 中。

这些区块的范围从区块高度 71,233 到 88,846，与之前的实例类似，它们不是按顺序移动的，而是在指定高度内开采的。

来自 40 个独特的支付到公共密钥哈希 (P2PKH) 地址的 40 个区块奖励的转移，标志着鲸鱼自 2010 年以来交易约 1,000 BTC 或 20 个区块奖励的惯常活动有所不同。 Bitcoin.com News 的详细链上审查指出自 2020 年首次发现鲸鱼以来，这是一次特殊的转移。2020 年 3 月 11 日，我们首次发现了这头鲸鱼，此后该鲸鱼总共出现了 15 次。

所有红线都与臭名昭著的 2010 年鲸鱼相连，紫色线可能是同一头鲸鱼，但由于异常值，确定性要低很多。

除了 2024 年 3 月 11 日的 2,000 BTC 变动之外，我们观察到的所有其他字符串支出都遵循一个精确的公式：这些区块源自 2010 年 7 月、8 月、9 月、10 月和 11 月，涉及 20 个区块奖励，每个区块奖励构成 1,000 BTC，资产从 20 个不同的 P2PKH 地址转移到单个支付脚本哈希 (P2SH) 地址。

然而，这只鲸鱼似乎已经偏离了过去可预测的模式。

我们将分析范围扩大到区块 1 到 800,000，采用的标准包括 10 个 50 BTC 的输入和 999 到 1001 BTC 之间的单个输出。

我们利用了 theholyroger.com、btcparser.com 等资源以及提供独特视角的各种区块链浏览器。

Our initial discovery highlighted that this type of pattern occurred 381 times since block 1,945, which is believed to have been mined by Satoshi. Our investigation also uncovered additional outlier transactions (above the 381) that bore a resemblance to the mega whale’s activities, yet displayed some distinct deviations. Block 1,945 featured just two transactions, with one being a consolidation of 20 block rewards.

Block 1,945, contained a 20 block reward spend that consolidated the 1,000 into a single address.

This particular transaction amalgamated 1,000 BTC from P2PKH addresses into a single P2PKH address, rather than a P2SH address, which wasn’t yet introduced in 2009. Thus, we infer that this pattern of consolidation existed both prior to and following the introduction of P2SH. Further investigation suggests the prominent whale we’ve been tracking may have executed transactions of 1,000 BTC even before we noticed the pattern in 2020.

On Nov. 24, 2019, a batch of 20 block rewards from 2010 were moved, likely by the same whale, with a very high degree of certainty. At that time, a single bitcoin was valued at $6,960. These rewards fell between block heights 77,267 and 86,968 and were mined in a single block in non-sequential order. This transaction aligned with subsequent ones, except for the March 1, 2024, transfer of 2,000 BTC, marking a notable exception.

It’s also feasible that this whale conducted a similar transaction on June 27, 2019, though this instance stands out from the usual pattern. The output range was above the 999 and 1001 BTC criteria and both P2PKH and P2SH were used in the outputs. This particular transaction had two outputs: one sending 1,152.72 BTC to a P2SH address and another transferring 1.99 BTC in change to a traditional P2PKH address.

All involved block rewards were from 2010 and were mined between blocks 67,992 and 92,336 and like the others, the spent blocks were in non-sequential order. The identification of the June 27, 2019, transaction as belonging to our whale is more challenging compared to the nearly certain match of the Nov. 24, 2019, activity. It’s evident from the 381 pattern matches and several outliers that this particular whale could have started its activities even before 2019.

We can infer that this entity was an active bitcoin miner in 2010 and suggest that either an individual miner had a penchant for moving 1,000 BTC in batches, or a collective of miners shared this same preference. This miner or group of miners likely accumulated a substantial number of bitcoins that year, ranging from tens to hundreds of thousands. Consider the Nov. 24, 2019, transaction, involving blocks mined between 77,267 and 86,968, totaling 9,701 blocks.

这意味着在此期间开采了超过 485,000 个 BTC，而该矿工可能积累了数万到数十万个。

当时，整个网络的算力仅为每秒 5 GB（GH/s）。

然而，这一时期标志着向图形处理单元（GPU）挖矿的过渡。

值得注意的是，著名的比特币矿工和区块链开发商 Artforz 于 2010 年 7 月出现在 bitcointalk.org 论坛上，成为最早使用 GPU 进行挖矿的人之一。Laszlo Hanyecz 因用 10,000 BTC 换两个披萨而闻名，据信也拥有比 Artforz 早两个月开始 GPU 挖矿。

然而，Artforz 因其在 2010 年开采的大量比特币而引起了广泛关注。2010 年 7 月 25 日，Artforz 报告称，在短短六天内就产生了 1,700 个比特币，据估计，他的农​​场控制着 20-30% 的比特币。截至当年 10 月，该网络的计算能力已经达到。

Artforz 是 1,000 笔 BTC 交易背后的巨鲸的潜在候选者，尽管其他人也可能通过 GPU 挖矿积累了大量比特币。

中本聪对这一趋势表示担忧，建议达成“君子协议”来推迟 GPU 军备竞赛，但随着向 GPU 以及随后向 ASIC 挖矿的快速转变，这一请求并未得到重视。

尽管如此，本月区块链上最新的复古数字舞蹈讲述了神秘先驱者和比特币新生时代的故事。
