The transfer included 3,800 BTC and over 30,000 ETH, seized from various criminal cases. ## Transfer Details The transfer covered BTC and ETH seized from cases involving Brian Krewson, BTC-e, and Ryan Farace. The largest transfer was made from a wallet linked to the Farace case. ## Internal Transfers Some of the transfers may have been internal redistributions between Coinbase Prime and cold wallets. Such movements suggest asset reallocation rather than preparation for sale. ## Security Measures Large amounts of crypto assets are typically stored in cold wallets for security reasons. Transfers to exchanges are often interpreted as preparations for sale. ## Government's Crypto Portfolio After the recent transfers, the US Government still holds $20.6 billion in crypto assets. This portfolio includes 324,552 BTC, 28,394 ETH, and 145.5 million USDT. ## Crypto Asset Management These moves by the US Government serve as a significant example of how crypto assets are managed. Such transfers can have an impact on the crypto market. ## Sources covering this story - https://incrypted.com/pravitelstvo-ssha-perevelo-kriptoaktivy-na-288-mln-na-coinbase-prime/ — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
