<p>Today, founder of TRON (TRX) Justin Sun <a href="https://x.com/justinsuntron/status/1808828661401072092" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">offered</a> to buy all remaining Bitcoin (<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/tron-founder-justin-sun-unveils-massive-28613-btc-portfolio-worth-1-638-billion-on-htx-amid-crypto-exchange-speculation/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a>) owned by the German government. This notable offer is in line with the confiscation of $2.3 billion in BTC from the movie pirate platform Movie2k.to by the German police.</p>
<h2 id="strong-background-of-the-seizure-strong"><strong>Background of the Seizure</strong></h2>
<p>Seized as part of a more general crackdown on unlawful streaming platforms, the Bitcoin in issue was many times connected to different kinds of cybercrime. These platforms are also related to the Movie2k.to case.</p>
<p>It underlined a rising trend whereby law enforcement authorities are progressively focusing on illegal digital resources. This crackdown is a component of more general initiatives to reduce digital space unlawful activity.</p>
<p>Justin would Sun’s offer to buy the seized <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/el-salvadors-bitcoin-law-outshines-european-regulations-in-cryptocurrency-adoption/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">bitcoin</a> is meant to have the least impact on the market. A large volume of Bitcoin sold on the open market can cause notable price fluctuations and a possible disturbance of the market.</p>
<p>Sun <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/tron-founder-justin-sun-joins-whale-in-mega-180m-ethereum-buying-spree/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">wants</a> to absorb these assets by making a private purchase, therefore avoiding a rapid drop in the market value of Bitcoin. This approach shows a great grasp of market dynamics and the possible consequences of extensive Bitcoin liquidations.</p>
<p>Given Sun’s knowledgeable and forward-looking attitude, blockchain researcher Collin Brown <a href="https://x.com/CollinBrownXRP/status/1808868585961353392" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">has</a> complimented his action.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, data from CoinMarketCap shows that Bitcoin’s price at the time of writing is over <strong>$57,336.64</strong>. Over the past seven days, BTC has shown a bearish trend, with a drop of <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">4.93%</span></strong> over the last 24 hours. This recent volatility emphasizes the need of prudent market methods, such Sun’s offer, to prevent aggravating price variations.</p>

<p>Justin Sun is not new to the crypto scene in terms of headlines. Previously, according to a prior report by Crypto News Flash, he has underlined how important <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/dogecoin-and-shiba-inu-gain-backing-justin-sun-endorses-meme-coin-movement/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">meme coins</a> are in separating the crypto sector from conventional finance.</p>
