BlockBeats News, August 7th, according to CoinDesk's report, the resurrected investment bank Solomon Brothers announced that it has completed the process of inserting an OP_Return notification into a bitcoin wallet considered "abandoned," reminding holders to claim the assets as soon as possible.

According to its official website, wallets that have not been used for over 14 years may be considered "legally abandoned," triggering discussions in the community about its potential forfeiture methods, with some comments describing its actions as "clever but controversial." The company has sent notifications to some well-known addresses, such as the "1Feex" wallet holding 80,000 BTC.

Solomon Brothers stated that its anonymous client plans to establish a special fund to help wallet holders who have lost their private keys, and details will be announced in the coming months. Wallet holders are given a 90-day deadline to claim the wallet through a transfer or by filling out a form. Some users have already responded to the notification and moved their assets to a new address.
