Bhutan has quietly reduced its bitcoin holdings in recent months, with government-linked transfers exceeding $40 million so far this year, according to blockchain analytics data. The sales come as the Himalayan nation continues to manage one of the world's most unusual sovereign crypto reserves, built primarily through state-backed bitcoin mining powered by surplus hydropower. Data from Arkham Intelligence shows that the Royal Government of Bhutan moved 175 BTC worth approximately $11.85 million late on Monday. The transfer was sent to the same bc1q wallet address that received 184 BTC worth $14.09 million in February, suggesting a recurring counterparty likely used for over-the-counter (OTC) transactions or treasury management.
