Bitcoin is drawing fresh attention from governments, whale wallets and chart analysts at the same time. This update links new state-level exposure, a billion-dollar on-chain transfer and a fragile bounce into one picture of where the market stands.Four Governments Confirm New Channels for Holding BitcoinFour governments have recently disclosed Bitcoin exposure through mining programs, direct purchases, ETFs and test portfolios. The United Arab Emirates, El Salvador, Luxembourg and the Czech Republic now all appear in public records as nation states with some form of BTC on their books.Four Nations Add Bitcoin Exposure. Source: The Bitcoin HistorianIn the UAE, blockchain analysts traced several thousand BTC to wallets tied to a government-backed mining operation. The coins come from mined rewards rather than exchange buys, yet the holdings still sit under state control and now show up in on-chain data.El Salvador continues to add Bitcoin directly to its national stash. Officials have announced new acquisitions worth around $100 million in recent weeks, extending a policy of buying BTC during market pullbacks and holding it as part of the country’s long-term strategy.Luxembourg is using a fund structure instead of spot coins. Its Intergenerational Sovereign Wealth Fund plans to place a small share of assets into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds and related products, giving the state price exposure while custodians handle the underlying assets.The Czech Republic has taken a more experimental route. The Czech National Bank built a $1 million test portfolio that includes Bitcoin, a U.S. dollar stablecoin and a tokenized deposit. Officials say the basket sits outside formal foreign-exchange reserves and serves mainly as a research tool, yet it still marks disclosed central-bank exposure to BTC.While governments adjust their policies, large holders on-chain are also on the move.Whale Address Receives 10,145 BTC From BitMEX Cold WalletMeanwhile, on-chain data show a whale address has received 10,145 BTC, valued near $1 billion at recent prices.

Poppe expects Bitcoin to move sideways for a period as the market builds a new base following the sharp decline.
