Bitwise CIO Reveals What Will Happen If The US Sells Its Silk Road BTC 🇺🇸

Bitwise's Chief Investment Officer, Matt Hougan, has shared his thoughts on the possible market implications if the Biden administration decides to liquidate the $6.5 billion Bitcoin stash acquired from Silk Road. This comes after a court gave the green light for such a sale.

Hougan's comments suggest that selling this massive amount of Bitcoin could significantly impact the cryptocurrency markets, possibly affecting prices and investor behavior. His insights reflect on how these government-held assets could shift market dynamics if released into the open market.
