The US government transferred over 12,267 BTC worth about $1.01 billion and $94.15 million in USDT to Coinbase Prime, continuing a recent spree of large crypto movements totaling nearly $1.87 billion in three days. These Bitcoin transfers are linked to the 2016 Bitfinex hack restitution process, where recovered stolen coins are being returned to Bitfinex, not sold by the government. The activity also involved smaller test transactions from FTX-linked wallets. While the transfers raise questions about government intentions, the court-approved restitution process suggests these are returns of stolen assets rather than sales, amid a broader crypto market downturn.
The US government's recent transfer of $1 billion in Bitcoin and $94 million in Tether provides context for the crypto market environment.
