BlackRock has transferred 4,113 Bitcoin worth $429 million to Coinbase Prime, raising concerns about a possible shift in its strategy.
Speculation of institutional selloff led to Bitcoin price dipping below $105,000, but on-chain data showed no confirmed Bitcoin sale by BlackRock.
The transfer involved multiple transactions from BlackRock-linked wallets to Coinbase Prime using batches of 300 BTC, indicating a planned and orderly fund transfer.
Arkham Intelligence confirmed that BlackRock did not sell Bitcoin related to the Coinbase Prime transfer, indicating it was for custody and not distribution of funds.
