<h2 id="false-alarm-triggers-sell-off">False alarm triggers sell-off</h2>
<p>On April 26, the flagship digital asset had <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/bitcoin-makes-play-for-30k-leading-to-145m-liquidations/">rallied toward</a> $30,000 before <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/bitcoin-drops-down-to-27k-range-again-liquidating-170m-and-77k-traders/">suddenly dropping</a> to around $27,200. The sudden price movement was fueled by rumors that the U.S. government and bankrupt crypto exchange <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">Mt.Gox</span> were selling the assets.</p>
<p>Blockchain analytical firm Arkham Intelligence <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/intelligence-platform-arkham-sent-incorrect-bitcoin-alert-coinciding-with-6-crash/">countered</a> that its alert couldn&#8217;t have caused the panic because it was sent after the market crash.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Matrixport chief researcher Markus Thielen <a href="https://twitter.com/DeFiOnTarget/status/1651398427631321091?s=20">noted</a> that the market should be well aware of the eventual distribution of those BTC. According to Thielen, the potential market impact of those distributions would not be a big deal.</p>
