According to Arkham monitoring, the Bhutan government recently transferred 90 BTC, worth approximately $7 million, to a bc1q- SegWit address. This address is different from their long-term holding P2SH addresses starting with 3, which usually indicates BTC has been transferred to other entities. The Bhutan government regularly transfers small amounts of BTC to SegWit addresses. Since reaching a peak holding of about 13,390 BTC in October 2024, their BTC holdings have decreased by approximately 10k BTC, and they currently hold about $233 million worth of BTC.

A small country is trading cryptocurrencies more aggressively than I am; I feel ashamed.

Government-level DCA selling, more disciplined than retail investors.

P2SH switches to SegWit, a technical upgrade or a tactical shift

bc1q addresses are usually for new wallets, possibly prepared to transfer to an institution?

Reduced from 13k tokens to just a remainder, this selling-off pace is very steady.

7 million dollars is probably just pocket change for the government.

This operation in Bhutan is a bit interesting; is it time to ship out when changing addresses?
