Several public companies and sovereign entities, including Riot Platforms, Genius Group, and Nakamoto Holdings, are selling significant portions of their Bitcoin holdings due to long-term losses and liquidity needs. This marks a shift from the previous trend of accumulation during rising prices. Firms are using proceeds to repay debt, fund operations, and pivot strategies toward areas like AI and high-performance computing. Despite the selling, public companies still hold over 1.16 million BTC, representing more than 5% of Bitcoin's total supply, while Bitcoin prices hover near $66,000.
