This extended today’s Bitcoin selling spree to over 5000 BTC.

According to on-chain data platform <a rel="nofollow" href="https://platform.arkhamintelligence.com/explorer/entity/germany" target="_blank">Arkham</a>, the German government transferred 133.723 BTC worth nearly $7.63 million to crypto market maker Cumberland DRW on July 8. Germany’s government made two transfers to Cumberland, with an initial transfer of 0.001, likely a test transfer to follow with large transfers in the future. 
The wallet address linked to the German Government (BKA) has dumped and transferred over 5000 BTC to crypto exchanges such as Coinbase, Bitstamp, Kraken and other wallet addresses starting with 139PoP and bc1qu3. 
The government still has 32,488 BTC worth an estimated $1.855 billion. These dumps by the wallet address triggered a panic selloff among investors, creating a bearish sentiment. The recent transfer is part of a larger trend and hinted at further selloffs to Cumberland DRW in the coming days. 
Since June 19, the German government has moved over 10,000 BTC valued at approximately valued at more than $1 billion (from $3.32 to $1.855 billion).
