On July 29, the United States government moved $2 billion worth of Bitcoin, just two days after former President Donald Trump vowed that the US would never sell any of its Bitcoin holdings during a speech at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville, Tennessee. According to Arkham Intelligence, the government transferred 29,800 Bitcoin, which were seized from the Silk Road dark web marketplace in 2022, to an unknown wallet address. The funds have since been moved to another unknown wallet.
Catherine Chen, head of VIP and institutional at Binance, commented that the attention Bitcoin is receiving from prominent US figures, including Trump, is a âpositive signâ for digital assets. âWhat is clearly meaningful is that politicians and prominent industry leaders are explicitly stating their positions, recognizing the value of Bitcoin in the monetary system, and making it clear that crypto is important on their agenda,â said Chen. She also noted that Binanceâs CPT Framework, focusing on Capital, People, and Technology, will be bolstered by the establishment of strategic Bitcoin reserves, potentially advancing the crypto market in the long term.
