The movement signals a step in distributing recovered assets, but a transfer to an exchange does not by itself confirm that the Bitcoin was sold. The amount is small relative to Bitcoin’s overall market, so its direct price impact is likely limited; the transfer may nevertheless draw attention to potential near-term selling. --- ## Sources 1. https://cryptobriefing.com/us-government-bitcoin-coinbase-bitfinex-restitution/ --- *Content provided by BITERMINAL — https://biterminal.rendrr.app* *Powered by xAI Grok.
