According to Odaily, Jameson Lopp, co-founder of Casa, has tracked the Bitcoin sales of the US government and discovered that since 2014, the US government has seized and sold at least 195,091 Bitcoins, making a profit of over $366 million. Based on data from the Bitcoin Treasuries website, the US government currently holds 213,546 Bitcoins, valued at over $13 billion at current market prices, making it one of the largest Bitcoin holders in the world.
In the meantime, the German government is the world's fourth-largest sovereign Bitcoin holder, only behind China and the UK, holding 46,359 Bitcoins. This information sheds light on the increasing interest and involvement of governments in the cryptocurrency market, particularly Bitcoin. The US government's significant holdings of Bitcoin underscore the growing acceptance of cryptocurrencies as a legitimate asset class.
