JUST IN: $600 Million in Bitcoin Seized by the US Government from Silk Road Is Allegedly Being Moved
In a last-minute development, it was claimed that 10,000 BTC worth approximately $600 million was moved from the bc1qlap8hkt9genaljz5nt2zlehhudx63zlahr2zek wallet, which reportedly belongs to the US government.
Arkham data supports that $600 million worth of BTC was transferred from the address in question. However, the address in question has not been marked by Arkham as belonging to the US government for any reason. However, in previous posts, Arkham stated that the transfers made from this wallet were made by the US government.
We have more information about the recipient wallet. The Whale Alert platform has marked the recipient wallet as belonging to Coinbase, but since it is very difficult to determine whether a cryptocurrency address belongs to an exchange, there is no clear information on this subject yet.
