ChainCatcher message, Arkham tweeted that the German government has failed to seize 5 billion dollars worth of Bitcoin.

In early 2024, German police seized 49,858 Bitcoins from the operators of the pirated movie site Movie 2 K. In July 2024, the government sold these Bitcoins for 2.89 billion dollars at an average price of 57,900 dollars. It currently appears that there are still over 45,000 Bitcoins in Movie 2 K's wallet, almost equivalent to the amount of seized Bitcoins, worth 5 billion dollars.
