<h2 id="key-points">Key Points</h2> 
<ul> 
 <li>Germany has sold a significant amount of its seized BTC holdings, causing a dip in the cryptocurrency’s price.</li> 
 <li>The number of long-term Bitcoin holders has decreased, impacting the profitability of current holders.</li> 
</ul>  
<p>Germany’s recent shedding of nearly 1,700 Bitcoins, worth approximately $110 million, has caused a significant dip in the price of the cryptocurrency. This sale occurred across major exchanges such as Kraken, Coinbase, and Bitstamp. </p> 
<h2 id="germany-s-bitcoin-strategy">Germany’s Bitcoin Strategy</h2> 
<p>This move by Germany, while substantial, is a small fraction of their vast $43 billion Bitcoin stash. The recent on-chain activity suggests a strategic decision to offload a small portion of their Bitcoin holdings. Germany has been accumulating Bitcoin through seizures, with a total of 50,000 confiscated over the past few years. </p> 
<p>Despite this recent sale, Germany still boasts a substantial amount of unrealized profits from their Bitcoin holdings. The recent surge in Bitcoin’s price has significantly increased the value of Germany’s holdings. The current stash is estimated to be worth an impressive $3.24 billion, with $1.1 billion of that being unrealized profit. This places Germany as the world’s fourth-largest Bitcoin holder, following the US, China, and the UK. </p> 
<h2 id="impact-on-bitcoin-s-value">Impact on Bitcoin’s Value</h2> 
<p>The recent German sell-off, along with outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs, is being blamed for the current selling pressure on <a href="https://coineagle.com/price/bitcoin/">Bitcoin</a>. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $64,562.51, a decline of 1.29% in the last 24 hours. The MVRV ratio for Bitcoin had also decreased, indicating that most holders were not profitable at the time of writing. This could further impact sentiment around Bitcoin negatively. </p> 
<p>Interestingly, the long/short difference around Bitcoin had also decreased, indicating that the number of long-term addresses holding Bitcoin had declined. This decrease in long-term holders could also influence the profitability of current holders.</p>
