US Government Moves Portion of Seized Alameda Research Bitcoin Holdings
27 August 2026 · last month
The US government moved a small amount of Bitcoin from accounts linked to Alameda Research that were seized from Binance.US about three years ago. According to Arzdigital, published Wednesday, 4 Shahrivar 1405 (August 26, 2026), blockchain tracking platform Arkham Intelligence flagged the transaction on August 26.
Arkham did not disclose the exact amount transferred or the destination address, and said the move was not necessarily a sign of an asset sale, noting that transfers between wallets can also occur for custody, accounting or security management purposes. Wallets controlled by the US government have moved seized Alameda and bankrupt FTX exchange assets several times during 2026, including about $1.89 million in tokens in May and nearly $984,000 in June, both sent to Coinbase Prime.
