Overview
- On Aug. 2, wallets tracked to Trump Media moved 2,628 bitcoin to Crypto.com, cutting tagged balances to about 4,261 BTC, a fact reported by multiple on‑chain analysts.
- Trump Media representatives say no sale occurred, and the transfer could represent either a custody re‑deposit or a sale because Crypto.com serves as both a named custodian and an exchange.
- The roughly 4,261 BTC remaining in tagged addresses closely matches the 4,260.73 BTC the company disclosed as pledged collateral for its convertible notes, which are restricted until no later than May 29, 2028.
- On‑chain trackers estimate the company has moved about 7,281 BTC since December and calculate roughly $318 million in realized losses and about $555 million in combined realized and unrealized losses, but those figures are not confirmed by the company.
- The Truth API launch on Aug. 1 prompted Senators Warren and Schiff to ask the SEC to review market‑impact risks, making the 10‑Q and any regulator response the key next developments to watch.
