Wallets tied to Trump Media sent about 4,259 BTC, roughly $342 million, to a Crypto.com address, according to Arkham data reported by CoinDesk. The transfer does not by itself show a sale, and the company did not comment.
- The coins came from addresses labeled as collateral for the company's 2028 convertible notes.
- The move equals about 30% of the roughly 14,139 BTC Trump Media reported as of July 31.
- Noteholders can require repayment on Nov. 30, potentially about $1 billion; a Nov. 2 filing warns it may have to sell bitcoin if refinancing falls short.
