Justin Sun Offers to Buy German Government’s $2.3B Bitcoin

• To reduce market impact, Justin Sun offers to buy all BTC that the German government has seized.
• Bitcoin was seized from the illegal streaming platform Movie2k.to as part of a cybercrime crackdown.

Today, founder of TRON (TRX) Justin Sun offered to buy all remaining Bitcoin (BTC) owned by the German government. This notable offer is in line with the confiscation of $2.3 billion in BTC from the movie pirate platform Movie2k.to by the German police.

Background of the Seizure

Seized as part of a more general crackdown on unlawful streaming platforms, the Bitcoin in issue was many times connected to different kinds of cybercrime. These platforms are also related to the Movie2k.to case.

It underlined a rising trend whereby law enforcement authorities are progressively focusing on illegal digital resources. This crackdown is a component of more general initiatives to reduce digital space unlawful activity.

Justin would Sun’s offer to buy the seized bitcoin is meant to have the least impact on the market. A large volume of Bitcoin sold on the open market can cause notable price fluctuations and a possible disturbance of the market.

Sun wants to absorb these assets by making a private purchase, therefore avoiding a rapid drop in the market value of Bitcoin. This approach shows a great grasp of market dynamics and the possible consequences of extensive Bitcoin liquidations.

Given Sun’s knowledgeable and forward-looking attitude, blockchain researcher Collin Brown has complimented his action.
