- Corporate Bitcoin holdings saw three consecutive weeks of selling for the first time ever in early 2026.
- Bitcoin crashed immediately after hitting a $126,080 all-time high in October 2025.
- A Satoshi-era miner exited a 15-year position, selling 1,300 BTC worth approximately $750 million.
- Market volatility was exacerbated by external factors like new government tariffs.
In a historic reversal, companies that spent 2025 aggressively adding Bitcoin to their corporate treasuries have logged three straight weeks of selling, according to market data. This unprecedented selling streak began after BTC reached a new peak of $126,080 in October 2025, which was immediately followed by the cryptocurrency market’s biggest single-day liquidation event in history. Consequently, the corporate accumulation phase that defined last year appears to be over.
This corporate exodus signals a potential shift in institutional risk appetite. Furthermore, a long-dormant miner from the Satoshi era recently exited a 15-year position by selling 1,300 BTC, worth around $750 million. Meanwhile, Bitcoin faced another sharp price drop on Monday, February 23, 2026, partially attributed to new tariffs from the Trump administration. CoinGecko data shows BTC briefly fell below $65,000 that day before a slight recovery. The broader market remains pressured by low liquidity and geopolitical tensions.
