No wonder the price collapsed again because of this negative sentiment that the US government will sell all the proceeds from confiscated bitcoins.

The news is that the US government still has around 209K bitcoins is that true? If so maybe the US government will sell on a scale.

Does anyone have the transaction Id for this transaction?
You can see this transaction where the US Government sent the mentioned amount of bitcoin to Coinbase.

Thanks for posting the link. So it looks like the dump had nothing to do with the government funds being moved to coinbase. If you look at the chart, you would see it’s very bitcoin bottomed pretty much.

So either it’s a coincidence that it happened the day prior or there was some leak. Someone knew about this, most likely someone at coinbase or the government and leaked it and everyone shorted.

But when the news came out, it already bottomed. So it’s strange.
