US Government Just Sent $240M in Bitcoin to Coinbase.
The U.S. government appears to be selling more Bitcoin, with a known federal wallet address sending another 3,940 BTC ($240 million) to Coinbase on Wednesday.
The move to Coinbase Primeโthe exchangeโs institutional platformโwas immediately picked up by blockchain sleuths, highlighting a blockchain transfer at 1pm ET for just $18 in fees.
Expert opinions were split regarding where the government obtained the transferred Bitcoin.
According to on-chain sleuth ZachXBTโs Telegram channel, the funds were part of the reclaimed Bitcoin from the โSilk Road hack.โ After the infamous darknet marketplace shutdown in 2013, the Justice Department tracked down the hacker and seized 50,676 BTC, which the government has been selling off in batches ever since.
Aside from Silk Road, many of the governmentโs coins were reclaimed from 2016 Bitfinex hacker Razzlekhan in 2022. But Blockchain data platform Arkham Intelligence says the coins stolen today came from neither of those sources.
โThis BTC was originally seized from narcotics trafficker Banmeet Singh, and forfeited at trial in January 2024,โ the firm tweeted on Thursday.
The author of the bestseller "Rich dad poor dadโ highlighted the potential of the leading cryptocurrency to enter the so-called โBanana Zoneโ. ......... INย publicationย on X (Twitter) on June 26, Kiyosaki expressed his firm belief that BTC will soon make a parabolic rebound.
The term "Banana Zoneโ was coined by Raoul Pal, CEO of Real Vision and an expert in macroeconomics, to describe the potential parabolic jump ofย Bitcoin.ย
Kiyosaki agreed with Pal's view, noting that the term "creates great excitement". He emphasized that Pal, with his extensive experience as a senior executive at Goldman Sachs, has deep knowledge.
"Yes, I believe Raul Pal knows what he is talking about. (โฆ) The โBanana Zoneโ is when Bitcoin goes upโฆ goes parabolaโฆ creates a sine curveโฆ when people say โI should have bought someโโฆ or โI should have bought more Kiyosaki wrote.

The price action of $INJ is holding at its horizontal support level, marked between $22.735 and $22.378. ๐
We can anticipate a bounce back from this zone, potentially leading to further upward price movement. ๐
However, the price action has shown a candle imbalance below this level, which should be monitored for potential volatility. ๐ โโโโโ Salman Khan Wazirยฎ
The price has bounced off the horizontal support and is currently trading below the descending trendline.
A breakout and subsequent retest of the trendline would confirm a bullish signal, while a breakdown and retest of the horizontal support would confirm a bearish signal. โโโโโโโ - Salman Khan Wazirยฎ
Bitcoin is currently testing the horizontal resistance zone of an ascending triangle on the weekly timeframe. This pattern suggests the potential for a significant process movement, as ascending triangles often precede breakouts.
The 21-day moving average is acting as a resistance level. A breakout above this moving average would indicate a bullish trend, likely leading to higher prices.
Conversely, if Bitcoin fails to break through the 21MA, it may result in a downward movement within the triangle, potentially revisiting lower support levels.
As u can see btc breakdown trend line and also our important line I have marked with dark blue arrow according to this it can dump till 61k to 60.7k approx in lower tf if breaks 61140 area then will see.
