Many people are feeling confused again now, let me simply share my personal opinion:

Selling the seized BTC before Trump took office actually makes a lot of sense. If you were the official responsible for handling these BTC, facing complex interests and pressures, and knowing that the next leader wouldn't let you sell, what would you choose?

1. Sell quickly before he takes office, after all, you still have the authority.

2. Wait until after he takes office to sell, resulting in being unable to sell at all.

From a human perspective, most people would choose the first option. But would doing so really offend Trump? Not necessarily. Because Trump had not taken office at that time and had no power; selling BTC was legal. Moreover, if the government was still selling BTC just before he took office and then stopped afterward, wouldn't that just highlight Trump's "wisdom"? Maybe Trump would actually hope you sell quickly, as that would help relieve the pressure of his campaign promises. Later, he could even boast: "Before I took office, the US government was still selling Bitcoin, and after I took office, it stopped. No one understands Bitcoin better than I do!"
