The U.S. government sent 833.6 Bitcoin to Coinbase Prime – Why this transfer matters
Could these government wallet movements trigger a Bitcoin sell-off?
Our Summary:The US government has transferred 833.6 Bitcoin worth $71.6 million to Coinbase Prime, a move that could potentially trigger a sell-off in the Bitcoin market. However, this transfer represents only a small fraction of the government's overall crypto portfolio, and its impact on the market is likely to be minor. The transfer comes as the government still controls around $28 billion worth of digital assets, including 324,000 BTC. Bitcoin's price has dropped 2.6% in the past 24 hours, and the transfer has sparked concerns about potential short-term selling pressure.
