German Law Enforcement Continues to Offload Bitcoin Seized From Movie Piracy Site Movie2k

**German law enforcement is continuing to sell off the Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC)** that was seized from the defunct movie piracy site Movie2k earlier this year. The latest transfers, which were spotted on Wednesday by Arkham Intelligence, include 250 Bitcoin, which is currently valued at **$15.4 million**. The funds were sent to cryptocurrency exchanges Bitstamp and Kraken.

These latest transfers follow a series of similar transactions over the past week, with a total of roughly $150 million** in Bitcoin being moved to exchange wallets. An additional **$147 million has been sent to an unidentified address labeled “139Po” by Arkham, which could potentially be another exchange. The identity of the “139Po” address remains a mystery. While it's possible this could be another exchange, it raises questions about the ultimate destination of these funds.

Analysts are watching these developments closely, concerned about the potential impact on the Bitcoin price. The price dipped briefly below $60,000 this week following the news of the German sell-off, and is currently down around 6% since these transfers began.

Adding to the market uncertainty is the upcoming distribution of Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash from the collapsed Mt. Gox exchange. This massive influx of around $9 billion worth of cryptocurrency is expected to start in July, and could put further downward pressure on prices.

Despite these sales, Germany remains one of the largest sovereign holders of Bitcoin globally, with current holdings estimated at around 45,609 BTC (worth roughly $2.8 billion). The United States, China, and the United Kingdom hold significantly larger reserves.
