<p>A wallet associated with the BKA sent $24 million in bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" rel="noreferrer noopener">BTC</a>) in two transactions to the Kraken and <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/coinbase/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/coinbase/" rel="noreferrer noopener">Coinbase</a> cryptocurrency exchanges during the morning hours in Europe, as <a href="https://x.com/ArkhamIntel/status/1805542881454633282" target="_blank" rel="">reported</a> by Arkham data.

<p>The authorities seized the BTC from the operators of the film piracy website Movie2k.to. The Bitcoin, worth over $2 billion at the time, was obtained from nearly 50,000 BTC. The suspects transferred it to the BKA in mid-January in a ‘voluntary transfer.’</p> 
<p>There is speculation surrounding this BTC transfer, with some suggesting that the owner of the German wallet may be looking to sell their BTC. Others believe it could be a strategy to diversify their assets across various exchanges.</p>
