The German government has sent even more bitcoin to exchanges and market makers today after doing the same earlier this morning.

The German government transferred 133.722 bitcoins to market maker Cumberland DRW today before sending 150 coins to crypto exchange Kraken and 1,000 coins to the B2C2 Group, according to blockchain analytics platform Arkham.

These new transfers follow transactions made earlier Monday morning, when the German government moved 250 bitcoins to Bitstamp, 250 bitcoins to Coinbase and 500 bitcoins to an unlabelled address presumed to be an OTC service or unlabeled exchange address. "Instead of holding bitcoin as a strategic reserve currency, as is already being debated in the USA, our government is selling on a large scale,” Cotar wrote last Thursday, claiming this was "not sensible" and "counterproductive."
