PANews reported on July 5 that according to CryptoSlate, German MP Joana Cotar strongly criticized the government's decision to sell $195 million worth of Bitcoin, believing that this move would increase market volatility and may have a long-term negative impact on the stability of the cryptocurrency market. These Bitcoins came from an investigation into the illegal website Movie2k.to.
Cotar said on the X platform that the German government should reconsider this strategy and discuss with the United States the use of Bitcoin as a strategic reserve currency.
