Empery Digital Sells 1,635 Bitcoin for $102.2M

Empery Digital sold 1,635 Bitcoin between July 1 and August 6, raising $102.2 million and trimming its holdings to 1,279 BTC, according to Bitcoin.com News. Of the remaining Bitcoin, 954 are pledged as collateral to secure a $35 million debt facility, leaving only 325 unencumbered—down sharply from 1,375 on June 30. During the first half, the company sold another 1,167 BTC for $80.1 million, then spent $54 million on share repurchases and repaid $50 million under repurchase financing plus a separate $10 million loan. After June 30, Empery repaid $20 million of debt and had 585 BTC returned by the lender, reducing collateral from 1,539 to 954 BTC. The firm has also committed $2.9 million to EMHU, a Texstack-managed real estate project, with a possible additional $62.1 million contribution if the acquisition closes. It completed a $20 million investment in Cardinal Data Power for roughly 8% equity. Cash, including restricted, stood at $3.7 million as of June 30, against a $5.7 million working capital deficit.

Michael Saylor Keeps Selling Bitcoin; Strategy Still Holds 842,138 BTC

Michael Saylor continues to reduce his Bitcoin holdings, according to on-chain monitoring service OnchainDataNerd. Last week, Saylor-related addresses sold roughly 1,638 BTC, worth about $102.4 million. Shortly afterward, another sale moved 299.84 BTC, valued at around $18.91 million. Today, those addresses sold another 1,030 BTC, worth approximately $66.14 million. Combined, the three rounds of selling total about 2,967.84 BTC, or $187.45 million. For context, the entire amount sold is below 3,000 BTC, while the remaining position is above 842,000 BTC. Even with the ongoing disposals, Strategy—the company formerly known as MicroStrategy—still holds about 842,138 BTC, valued at about $52.65 billion. That remaining balance is far larger than the amount sold across the three reported transactions, which equals roughly 0.35% of the firm's current position. ChainCatcher relayed the data from OnchainDataNerd. The tracked wallets have shown repeated sales over the past week, pointing to continued distribution from Saylor-related addresses even as Strategy maintains a substantial corporate Bitcoin position.

Dormant Ethereum OG Sells 2,250 ETH After 3 Years of Inactivity

A long-dormant Ethereum holder has returned to the market. According to on-chain tracking service Lookonchain, an early Ethereum OG wallet identified as 0x087...2d14 sold 2,250 ETH after three years of inactivity. The sale was valued at $4.15 million at the time of detection. Lookonchain said the wallet had acquired the ETH more than eight years ago at an average purchase price of about $489 per coin. The transaction adds to a steady stream of whale and legacy-holder movements that traders often watch for clues on positioning, even when no broader intent is disclosed. The monitored wallet address and the size of the transaction were the only details provided in the alert. No additional information was given on where the ETH was sold or whether more transfers are expected.
