- Germany deposited 400 Bitcoins ($25M) split between Kraken and Coinbase.
- Their Bitcoin holdings now value $2.82B, with $1.1B unrealized profit.
- Bitcoin price fell below $60K amid $174.5M ETF outflows on June 24.
Germany’s administration has made a strategic move in the cryptocurrency space, transferring a significant amount of Bitcoin to major exchanges Kraken and Coinbase. This comes after they recently made deposits totaling about 1,700 Bitcoins on three different exchanges.
The most recent transfer involved splitting 400 Bitcoins between Kraken and Coinbase, totaling nearly $25 million. Speculation in the cryptocurrency community has intensified due to this move, especially with whale activity and market fluctuations reaching a peak.
According to blockchain analytics company Arkham, 200 Bitcoins were deposited into each exchange at 15:38 UTC+8 by the German government with a total value of $24.34 million. Their prior deposit of 1,700 Bitcoins, which was worth about $110 million, was split among Kraken, Coinbase, and Bitstamp.
Germany now owns $2.82 billion worth of Bitcoin, with unrealized profits of $1.1 billion. This huge sell-off by the German government might have contributed to the ongoing selling pressure that has caused the price of Bitcoin to fall below $60,000, along with large withdrawals from Bitcoin ETFs and other market variables.
