Bitcoin Watch: US Government Transfers $470 Million in Seized Crypto, Arkham Says

AI Market Summary
Arkham and independent analysts report US government-linked wallets moved ~4,695 BTC plus WBTC and USDT (~$470M) tied to prior seizures (Bitfinex hack; FTX/Alameda), with portions sent to Coinbase Prime deposit addresses. Transfers to an exchange prime broker raise near-term supply overhang and headline risk, potentially pressuring crypto risk sentiment and increasing volatility as markets assess liquidation likelihood.

Arkham reports that wallets linked to the US government moved about 4,695 BTC, along with WBTC and USDT, across a series of transactions on Tuesday. On-chain analyst @TimechainIndex separately flagged the same roughly 4,695 BTC spread across four transactions. The funds are tied to prior seizures connected to the Bitfinex hack and the FTX/Alameda case. Portions of the transfers were sent to deposit addresses believed to be associated with Coinbase Prime. The activity follows additional government transfers to Coinbase Prime reported a day earlier.
