🚀 Bitcoin Whale Alert: Strategy Gobbles Up 6,220 BTC, Now Holds 607,770 Bitcoin

Another day, another massive Bitcoin accumulation—because apparently traditional finance wasn't volatile enough.

The big bite: An undisclosed strategy just swallowed 6,220 BTC in a single move, pushing total holdings to a staggering 607,770 Bitcoin. That's enough to make even Michael Saylor raise an eyebrow.

Why it matters: While Wall Street debates ETF flows, this player keeps stacking sats like there's no tomorrow. The move comes as Bitcoin consolidates near all-time highs—proving once again that crypto's 'irrational exuberance' has a longer shelf life than most hedge fund careers.

The cynical take: Somewhere in a boardroom, a Goldman Sachs VP is explaining why this is 'transitory' while secretly mining BTC on his gaming PC.
