Tesla likely still owns $780M in Bitcoin despite recent shuffle: Arkham
Tesla’s massive Bitcoin transfers initially sparked fears of a market dump, but Arkham’s data suggests the assets are still under the firm’s control.
Electric car manufacturer Tesla likely still owns its entire Bitcoin stash worth $780 million despite transferring all the funds to unidentified wallets on Oct. 15, according to a blockchain analytics firm.
“We believe that the Tesla wallet movements that we reported on last week were wallet rotations with the Bitcoin still owned by Tesla,” Arkham Intelligence said in an Oct. 22 X post.
Tesla split the 11,509 Bitcoin between seven wallets holding between 1,100 and 2,200 BTC on Oct. 15, Arkham noted. Wallet addresses “1Fnhp” and “1LERL” received the largest batches worth $142.2 million and $128.1 million, respectively.
