I've read on twitter that only yesterday, in one day, the ETFs have bought ~3760BTC at this discounted price. ( source: https://x.com/thomas_fahrer/status/1810862019073167728 )

And it's summer. Many buyers may now care more on finding the best beach for dinking their margaritas, not on what happens with finances. The bull run will continue afterwards.

German Government’s Swift Bitcoin Sales Could Soon Lead to Total Reserve Depletion

At 1:16 p.m. EDT on July 9, Bitcoin.com News reported on Germany’s bitcoin transfers after the country moved more than $220 million worth of funds. Since then, over a period of 19 hours and 30 minutes, the government’s BTC wallets have transferred 9,736 BTC valued at $564.3 million to various entities.

The recipients of these transfers include Coinbase, Bitstamp, Kraken, Flow Traders, Cumberland, and an unknown address. Since June 19, 2024, at 12 p.m. EDT, the German government’s BTC reserves have sold a total of 34,749 BTC worth $2.01 billion at current exchange rates.

The involvement of prominent exchanges and market makers, along with the unknown address, underscores the complexity and scale of these transactions. Future actions by the German government in the cryptocurrency market will be closely monitored by global market participants.
