It makes you wonder why such an old wallet would make a move now? There has been so many Bitcoin surges and this wallet user did not move any BTC. Did they remember their passwords after 14 years, or just never had the need to move them.
I think the most likely explanation is they tried Bitcoin a while ago and subsequently forgot about it. Then they discovered the wallet when checking an old backup or booting up an old PC from that era.
HODLer stopped HODLing a bit is all, why is this curious in any way?
If one thinks of this thing in orders of magnitude, seeing support at 100,000 with 1,000,000 still a ways off is a fine checkpoint.
Thinking back, 10 and 100 weren't interesting, 10k could have been but for reasons felt unripe. By contrast, 100k feels on "this side" of a lot of things aligned, fewer things left unaligned, so, meh.
And now, more topically, the BTC vs. alt coin behavior on China tariff Friday suggested a new kind of institutional support that could give a long term HODLer comfort for selling into it once that dust settled.

Nothing extremely odd about this move.
