Riot Platforms Sells Additional 500 BTC Worth $34.87M
Gate News message, Bitcoin mining company Riot Platforms has sold another 500 BTC valued at $34.87 million. Over the past 5 days, Riot Platforms has deposited a total of 1,500 BTC ($102.3 million) into NYDIG.
2026-04-03 07:03Riot sold 3,778 bitcoins in the first quarter, cashing out nearly $300 million, with its holdings down 18% year over year
Gate News article: Bitcoin mining company Riot Platforms sold 3,778 bitcoins in the first quarter of 2026, cashing out about $289.5 million, with an average selling price of $76,626. After this reduction, its bitcoin holdings fell to 15,680 coins, down about 18% from a year earlier. On-chain data shows that the company further sold another 500 bitcoins in early April, continuing the down-inventory trend. From the production side, Riot mined 1,473 bitcoins in the first quarter, down 4% year over year. Against the backdrop of slower output combined with market volatility, funding pressure for miners has risen. Similar actions are not isolated. MARA Holdings sold 15,133 bitcoins in the same period, amounting to about $1.1 billion; Genius Group has already cleared its bitcoin reserves, and Nakamoto Holdings also reduced its holdings by about 284 bitcoins in March. Miners and enterprises collectively adjusting their asset structures reflects growing needs for short-term cash flow and balance-sheet management. On-chain data further reveals changes on the demand side. CryptoQuant’s report shows that as of the end of March, bitcoin’s apparent demand fell to negative 63,000 coins, indicating that overall market buying momentum has weakened. However, capital has not fully exited. Strategy bought 44,377 bitcoins in March alone, accounting for 94% of the total purchases made by listed companies; Japanese listed firm Metaplanet also increased its holdings by 5,075 bitcoins in the first quarter, bringing its total holdings to 40,177 coins. The current market shows characteristics of structural divergence: on one side, mining companies and some firms are choosing to reduce holdings due to operating pressure; on the other, a few institutions are continuing to accumulate. This trend toward concentration suggests that bitcoin demand has not disappeared, but has shifted toward participants with stronger financial capacity. In the short term, bitcoin’s price movement will still be driven by the interplay between supply releases and institutional absorption.

2026-04-02 10:20As the Bitcoin holding craze cools off, multiple companies and governments are carrying out large-scale sell-offs of their BTC reserves
Gate News Message: The Bitcoin holding frenzy is beginning to cool off, and multiple companies and governments have started selling off their reserves, increasing short-term volatility in the crypto market. Investors who entered on a large scale over the past two years are now exiting one after another, putting pressure on market sentiment. Taking Empery Digital (EMPD) as an example: on Wednesday, the company sold 370 Bitcoins at an average price of $66,632, cashing out about $24.70 million, which it used to repay term loans and release about 1,800 Bitcoins that had previously been pledged. The company currently holds 2,989 Bitcoins remaining. Since Empery established its Bitcoin reserves in July 2025, it once held roughly 4,000 Bitcoins; its share price has fallen 75% from its all-time high. The AI-driven Bitcoin education company Genius Group (GNS) has also cleared out all of its Bitcoin reserves. It recently sold its remaining 84 Bitcoins to repay debts of $8.5 million, and said it will replenish its reserves again when market conditions improve. Major miner Riot Platforms (RIOT) is also continuing to cut back. On Wednesday, it sold 500 Bitcoins worth about $34.13 million to support its transition to AI and high-performance computing businesses. In the last two months of 2025, Riot had sold about $200 million worth of Bitcoin. Its current holdings are about 17,500 Bitcoins, and its Bitcoin reserves still rank among the top in the industry. Meanwhile, the government of Bhutan continues to reduce its Bitcoin holdings, having sold a total of 3,103 Bitcoins. Just one transaction on March 30 liquidated 375 Bitcoins, further lowering its holdings. Previously, through state-supported mining projects, the country reached a peak in October 2024, holding more than 13,000 Bitcoins. Despite market concerns sparked by recent sell-offs, publicly listed Bitcoin custody companies still hold about 1,164,800 Bitcoins, accounting for more than 5% of total supply. As of the time of publication, the Bitcoin trading price is about $66,500, down more than 2% from 00:00 UTC, indicating that short-term market sentiment still faces pressure. (CoinDesk)
2026-04-02 10:10Bitcoin whale activity: Riot sold 500 BTC, and Empire transferred 1,795 BTC to a CEX.
Gate News update: In recent weeks, the Bitcoin market has seen a fresh round of volatility, drawing attention as major institutional investors adjust their positions. Riot Platforms sold 500 Bitcoins, worth more than $34 million, to cover operating costs and lock in profits. At the same time, Empery Digital moved its remaining 1,795 Bitcoins to a CEX; the transaction is valued at roughly $122 million, signaling a major shift in its asset management strategy. These institutional moves highlight Bitcoin market liquidity and volatility. Miners selling part of their holdings can help provide short-term liquidity, while large transfers to exchanges may indicate an increase in potential future market activity. Investors closely monitor these developments to gauge market sentiment and price trends. Despite clear short-term fluctuations, these transactions reflect strategic positioning more than panic selling. The actions by Riot Platforms and Empery Digital also reflect a growing trend of institutional investors increasingly dominating the crypto market. As large holders adjust their positions, the scale of market capital and trading activity rise, which can also create downward pressure on prices. Traders often use the volatility from these large transactions to position themselves and optimize investment strategies. Analysts note that the Bitcoin market is entering a new phase driven by institutional behavior. In the short term, prices may be affected by selling pressure and changes in liquidity, but the long-term trend still depends on the overall market structure and capital flows. As institutional participation increases, the crypto market’s maturity and structural stability are improving in parallel. Overall, Riot Platforms’ and Empery Digital’s recent actions show how major participants manage risk and assets in a complex environment, while also providing reference signals for the market. Traders should pay attention to the motivations behind large Bitcoin transactions to seize potential opportunities and assess market direction.
