700 million USD: Strategy sends Bitcoin to Coinbase
- Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) recently undertook a major restructuring of its Bitcoin holdings. According to data from Arkham, the company moved a total of 6,162 Bitcoin in 30 tranches. The total value of the transactions at the time of the transfers was over $700 million.
- The coins originated from various internal addresses marked as “Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy)” in blockchain trackers. They were collectively transferred to addresses associated with Coinbase Prime Custody.
- This move indicates that the company is further consolidating its holdings and transferring them to the custody of the US custodian.
- Coinbase Prime Custody is considered a specialized custody solution for institutional investors and companies seeking to secure large amounts of digital assets. The custody service provider offers, among other features, segregation of client holdings, multi-party authorization, and insurance coverage.
- The BTC holdings of ETF issuers BlackRock and Co. are also held here.
- With the latest BTC purchase, Strategy has a total of nearly 640,000 BTC. The average price for all BTC investments is $73,971.
