Opeyemi savors his attraction to the crypto market, which explains why he spends the better parts of his day looking through different price charts. “Looking” is a rather simple way to describe analyzing and interpreting various price patterns and chart formations. However, it appears that is not Opeyemi’s favorite part – in fact, far from it.

Being able to connect what happens on a price chart to on-chain movements and blockchain activities is what keeps Opeyemi ticking. “This emphasizes the intricacies of blockchain technology and the cryptocurrency market,” he would say. Most importantly, Opeyemi thinks of any market insights as the gospel, while recognizing that he is only a messenger.

When he is not clicking away at his keyboard, Opeyemi is most definitely listening to music, playing games, reading a book, or scrolling through X. He likes to think he is not loyal to a particular genre of music, which can be true on many days. However, the fast-rising Afrobeats genre is a staple in Opeyemi’s Spotify Daily Mix.

Meanwhile, Opeyemi is a voracious reader who enjoys a wide category of books – ranging from science fiction, fantasy, and historical, to even romance. He believes that authors like George R. R. Martin and J. K.
Rowling are the greatest of all time when it comes to putting pen to paper. Opeyemi believes his reading of the Harry Potter series twice is proof of that.

Indeed, Opeyemi enjoys spending most of his time within the four walls of his home. However, he also sometimes finds solace in the company of his friends at a bar, a restaurant, or even on a stroll. In essence, Opeyemi’s ambivert (haha! been searching for an opportunity to use the word to describe myself) nature makes him a social chameleon who is able to quickly adapt to different settings.

Opeyemi recognizes the need to constantly develop oneself in order to stay afloat in a competitive and ever-evolving market like crypto. For this reason, he is always in learning mode, ready to pick up the slightest lesson from every situation. Opeyemi is efficient and likes to deliver all that is required of him in time – he believes that “whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.” Hence, you will always find him striving to be better.

Ultimately, Opeyemi is a good writer and an even better person who is trying to shed light on an exciting world phenomenon – cryptocurrency. He goes to bed every day with a smile of satisfaction on his face, knowing that he has done his bit of the holy assignment – spreading the crypto gospel to the rest of the world.

In less than 48 hours, Arkham Intelligence has discovered a series of Bitcoin (BTC) transfers from a German government account to some popular exchanges.

Germany’s Bitcoin Transfers Raising Concerns

The blockchain analytics platform revealed that at about 21:17 UTC+8 on June 20, the German government transferred 200 Bitcoin (BTC) to the American cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase. These assets were worth approximately $65 million at the time. Notably, Bitcoin was trading at $64,916.31 at the time of this writing, down by 0.06%.

UPDATE: German Government Still Selling BTC > $195M So Far.

In the past 2 hours, the German Government sent $65M in BTC to 2 likely exchange deposits including Coinbase.

Just the day before at about 16:47 UTC+8, Arkham Intelligence reported a transfer of 500 BTC each to Kraken and Bitstamp. This transfer of 1000 BTC was valued at approximately $65.24 million. According to Arkham, all the Bitcoin transferred to the two crypto exchanges and Coinbase came to about 1,500 by the close of the day.

After this initial transfer on Wednesday, the German government allegedly had a total of 47.859k BTC in its wallet, worth $3.1 billion.

Currently, there are only 46,859 BTC in the German government portfolio and it is valued at $3.04 billion. The reason behind these transfers is not yet clear but Miguel More, CEO of Arkham believes that the nature of the transfers signals a potential intention to sell the Bitcoin soon. If this is the case, it may complement the huge outflows that spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen recently.

Ethereum Set For Price Revival

Also, one X user thinks the country may be flipping its Bitcoin into Ethereum (ETH). While this is not certain, it is worth noting that Ethereum has caught the eyes of investors recently, especially with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) suddenly deciding to drop the months-long investigations into the coin.

For the longest time, Ethereum bore the tag of “security”, imposed by the U.S. SEC. Though it was never officially declared, the SEC Chairman Gary Gensler never missed the opportunity to categorize the second largest crypto as a security rather than a commodity like Bitcoin. Unfortunately, this tag cast a shadow on Ethereum, almost limiting the debut of spot Ethereum ETFs. A few crypto exchanges that trade Ethereum were accused of violating federal securities law by listing unregistered ETH securities.

On May 23, the regulator approved 8 spot Ethereum ETFs, a move that suggested to the broader crypto community that the SEC may be changing its mind about the underlying digital asset. The dismissal of the Ethereum investigation further suggests that the incessant crackdown of crypto firms by the commission is gradually slowing down.
