Viewpoint: The US government currently holds approximately 19.7 thousand BTC, and it may take several months before they can begin selling the BTC seized from the Silk Road.

ChainCatcher message, according to Trader T's post on X, it may take several months from approval to actual sale for 'the US government has been authorized to liquidate 69,370 BTC seized from the Darknet Silk Road'. In addition, according to Spot On Chain, the US government currently holds about 197,000 BTC, because the previous sales were completed through OTC transactions, so it did not directly affect the price, but the resulting market panic may cause a temporary decline in price.
