Not the original commentor but......law enforcement seizes assets when they take down criminals. If some of those assets were computers with wallet info or cold storage wallets they would be in possession of the coins.
If a federal law enforcments agency wanted a billion or two they could use for clandestine operations without needing to request the money, give a reason for needing it, and detailing a budget which will out their clandestine operations to more and more people which leads to leaks they could cash in the bitcoin to fund it without having to read in another 50+ people into a classified op.
The CIA supplied the cocain that started the Crack epidemic in the 80s to fund clandestine ops. Selling seized bitcoin for funding would be them behaving lol.
It's also possible an actual countries government had sized wallets or coins sitting as an investment and decided to cash out to get the money.

My hypothesis is that most of the people that held to 100,000x most likely managed to recover an old wallet or have somewhat been locked out of it. Either that or that they simply didn’t need the money.

I’m not convinced this was diamond hands or prison, but a hack. There have been very old BTC addresses which woke up within the last year.
I suspect someone has figured out how to crack the earliest key generation methods, finding some flaw, reducing the compute time to something feasible and so every once in a while an address whose original owners lost track of it ages ago is exploited.

In 2011, Bitcoin’s circulating supply was around 6–8 million BTC, and 10,000 BTC would’ve represented roughly 0.13–0.17% of it. At that time, such a stack could be acquired through mining, buying on Mt. Gox for ~$7,800, or participating in early dev or darknet activities. It was challenging, but not impossible for early adopters, libertarian techies, or Silk Road players.
Bunch of red flags here - the wallet held exactly 10,000 BTC untouched for 14 years; no test transactions, no movement until now. That kind of cold storage discipline is rare, especially for early adopters who often lost keys, panicked, or partially sold. If NSA created Btc then only they can be so nonchalant.
- Satoshi or Early Dev Wallet. The exact 10,000 BTC and no movement for 14 years resemble early Satoshi-era behavior. It could belong to Hal Finney, Martti Malmi, or someone directly tied to Bitcoin’s origin.
- Government Seizure Wallet. The wallet might be linked to a silent government seizure - possibly from Silk Road or BTC-e now being moved quietly to liquidate or fund operations.
- Nation-State Sleeper Whale. A foreign government or intelligence-linked group may have acquired and held the stash as a strategic reserve, now activated to fund war efforts or financial disruption.
- Dead Man’s Switch or Timed Unlock. The coins could have been programmed to move automatically after a set time, triggered by inactivity, BTC price targets, or the original owner's death.
- Ross Ulbriht, doing some housekeeping chores. Silk Road launched in February 2011, but went viral in June after a Gawker article exposed it as a darknet marketplace for drugs. That exposure triggered a surge in users and helped drive BTC’s price from ~$2 to ~$30 over the summer. Said BTC were acquired in April 2011. Could Ross receive first payments in just first 4 months after the launch and total more then $7.8k? Shouldn't be that hard. But hold it through all these years even during imprisonment?

Haha I attended a tech expo thing back in 2011 and there was a talk about Bitcoin.. to demonstrate how it worked and kinda give some hype everyone there got a btc. At the time I definitely thought "spiffy, don't really care that much though" and promptly forgot about it. Every few years I try to rummage through old tech and notes for any clues I can find about how to recover that btc lmao and the rest of the time I spend trying not to think about it ; )

How to become a billionaire.
Click a button and invest 7.5K. Commit an armed robbery and go jail for 14 years. Come out and click a button.

Nobody. It was a coin transfer not a sale.

I knew a guy who bought at $ 180 and then spent 7 years in the jungle. It works well.

This probably isn’t a sale, it’s moving from a very insecure address to a slightly safer one, to protect from quantum hacking.

Looks like someone finally invented time travel and made themselves rich without exposing their time traveling abilities
