Social media is buzzing with claims that BlackRock sold over $250M in BTC and ETH ahead of a supposed Fed emergency announcement.

🔍 What actually happened: On-chain data shows large BlackRock-linked wallets moved BTC and ETH to Coinbase Prime. These transfers are real and publicly visible.

❗ But important:

✨Moving funds to an exchange ≠ selling.

✨Institutions often do this for:

✨ETF creations/redemptions

✨Rebalancing

✨Liquidity management

There is no confirmed evidence that BlackRock executed a massive market dump.

🏦 About the Fed:

As of now, there is no verified “emergency announcement” from the Federal Reserve reported by major news outlets.

📉 Why markets reacted:

Crypto is already sensitive to macro uncertainty. Large wallet movements + weak sentiment = panic narratives.

Bottom line:

This looks more like on-chain repositioning, not a coordinated institutional exit. Always separate wallet transfers from actual sell pressure.$BTC
