At the time of writing, the German government has also shifted a further 3,107 BTC out of its main holdings, likely preparing for a further imminent sell-off.

💼 Related Market Activities
The German government sold a further $900 million worth of BTC on July 8, suggesting plans to continue steadily selling off its remaining $1.5 billion in Bitcoin holdings. That same 16,309 BTC sold is now worth over $930 million despite the mass sell-off, suggesting that buyers are still confident about buying BTC in this price range.
📊 Market Sentiment Analysis
Coinciding with the BTC sell-off, the reduction in BTC miner activity in operations and reserve sell-offs suggests that the market sentiment might be nearing its bottom. According to Bitfinex analysts, July 6 and 7 market data evidenced this local bottom despite Mt. Gox starting its BTC and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) repayments.
💹 BTC Ready to Rebound?
Despite the BTC sell-offs related to the German government and Mt. Gox repayments to creditors, several indicators suggest BTC is ready to bounce back. BTC reached its lowest point since late February, touching $53,550 before reversing to current highs of $57,600. The relative strength index indicator showed a growing divergence between the fall in price and the rise in RSI value, suggesting weakening sell pressure.
Apologies for my home nation. I would had sold the bitcoin to @JustinSun via otc.
