U.S. Government Moves $74M in Bitcoin Amid Major Short Bet by Whale

2025-10-15 07:45

The U.S. government has transferred 667.624 BTC, valued at approximately $74.65 million, to a new wallet address. This significant movement of Bitcoin coincides with a substantial $300 million short position taken by a Hyperliquid whale, who has also posted $30 million in collateral. The whale, rumored to be a 'Trump Insider,' previously gained $200 million from shorting Bitcoin and Ethereum before a market downturn on October 10. Despite these developments, analysts maintain a positive outlook for Bitcoin, suggesting it could reach $160,000 if institutional buying continues to strengthen. The recent activities highlight ongoing volatility and strategic positioning in the cryptocurrency market.
