【Blockchain Rhythm】Whales are causing trouble again. According to on-chain data tracking, a wallet suspected to be linked to GameStop transferred 2,396 BTC to a hot wallet of a major compliant platform 16 hours ago. This transfer amounts to half of its total Bitcoin holdings.

A review of records shows that in May 2025, GameStop made a large-scale purchase through this platform, acquiring 4,710 BTC at once as part of the company’s treasury reserve, investing approximately $500 million. The transaction price at that time ranged between $106,000 and $109,000 per BTC. Now, the unrealized loss on this portion of Bitcoin has reached $70 million.

The question is—what is this transfer preparing for? Is it to buy the dip and add to the position, or to adjust the portfolio strategy? The market is watching.

70 million in unrealized losses and still holding on? GameStop is determined to bottom out.

70 million in losses directly transferred to the exchange? Alright, either buy the dip or run away. I bet they still believe in Bitcoin.

Wow, GameStop is up to something again. Are they really about to take drastic action this time? It doesn't seem like an escape; maybe they're brewing a big move... Losing $70 million so confidently is definitely a bit ruthless. Let's wait and see how this game unfolds.

Haha, wait a minute, is GameStop trying to cut losses or playing psychological warfare? --- 70 million USD in unrealized losses just sitting there, I would have already lost sleep. --- Transferring hot wallets... this pace feels like they're about to make a big move, I bet five bucks it's to add to their position. --- Five hundred million dollars in, now with a unrealized loss of seventy million, is this how institutions manage risk? Laughing to death. --- Hey, wait a minute, why transfer to the exchange's hot wallet? Could it really be to buy the dip? --- GME is selling games while playing with crypto, this company really knows how to mess around. --- Wait, let me think, is this logic reversed... isn't transferring out supposed to be selling?

Damn, GME, are you about to cut losses or holding back a big move? Is the $70 million loss just being transferred out like that?

Wow, GameStop is causing trouble again? This coin transfer is really outrageous. Losing 70 million and still daring to act, either bottom fishing or admitting defeat. Wait, compliant platform hot wallet... aren't they trying to dump the market? They really treat the company like a casino. Transferring half of the position into it, their courage is truly remarkable.
