</ul>
The German government’s recent sale of 400 Bitcoins, worth nearly $95 million, has sparked criticism from the crypto community, who question the timing and strategy behind the move. This latest sale follows a previous offload of over 1,700 Bitcoins, further reducing the government’s substantial holdings.
According to a recent X post by The Data Nerd, the sale involved 100 BTC deposited on Kraken and 100 BTC on Coinbase, followed by 200 BTC on Bitstamp. Additionally, 1,100 bitcoins were also sent to an unknown wallet named “139Po.”
