Darknet bitcoin: US builds reserves while Saxony sold its stash
Original: Darknet bitcoin for the state reserve: the US collects, Saxony sold
Discussion is centreing on the contrast between the United States moving to hold bitcoin as a state reserve asset and Saxony, which sold off its large hoard of seized darknet bitcoins in 2024 at far lower prices. Commentators highlight the irony of a government now stockpiling coins after German authorities disposed of tens of thousands of them from the Movie2K case.
Why now: The contrast between US plans to accumulate bitcoin for a strategic reserve and Saxony's earlier sale of seized coins has reignited debate over governments' handling of crypto.
