‘$1 Million BTC’ Samson Mow Set to Bring Germany Back to Crypto

Samson Mow, $1 million Bitcoin advocate, has shared his view on the German government’s massive sell-off of the country’s national Bitcoin holdings, which imposed strong selling pressure on the lead cryptocurrency’s price.

He argues that Germany had to sell its BTC holdings, which it seized from a film pirate website, due to the illegal nature of the funds.

However, Mow believes that Germany needs to reacquire at least $50K in BTC as part of what he calls a “proper nation-state Bitcoin adoption strategy.” The entrepreneur even proposed developing a plan for this adoption strategy to implement as early as October this year.

The German government had no choice but to dispose of the 50,000 BTC seized from Movie2k. However, this October we should put together a concrete plan for Germany to re-acquire at least 50,000 BTC in a proper nation-state #Bitcoin adoption strategy. 🇩🇪 @JoanaCotar @BTCimBundestag

Currently, the German government holds $1 worth of Bitcoin.

What is happening

Germany started selling its almost $3 billion holdings in Bitcoin via major exchanges in late June, completing the sell-off this Friday. Putting immense selling pressure, this event caused the BTC price to drop as much as 15% in July.

According to data provided by Arkham, yesterday, Germany sold more than $550 million in BTC.

BTC ready for bull run?

Despite fair concerns and the current “extreme fear” BTC state, this selling pressure met with growing demand coming from BTC ETFs.

For instance, this Friday, the total daily inflow of Bitcoin ETFs has reached more than $300 million, according to Farside data. However, the German government BTC sell-off, however impactful, is not the only factor contributing to the crypto market correction at the moment.

Whether the BTC price correction continues or not, some experts believe that institutional investors are currently accumulating funds to “buy the dip.”
