Bhutan Denies Selling Bitcoin, but On-Chain Data Shows Over $1 Billion BTC Has Flowed Out
According to CoinDesk, blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence reported that the wallet holdings of Bhutan’s sovereign wealth fund, Druk Holding and Investments (DHI), have sharply declined—from approximately 13,000 BTC in October 2024 to roughly 3,100 BTC as of now. Since mid-2025, over $1 billion worth of Bitcoin has flowed out of the wallet, with funds directed to multiple exchanges and trading firms—including wallets interacting with Galaxy Digital and OKX. In response, Ujjwal Deep Dahal, CEO of DHI, stated, “I don’t recall the last time we sold Bitcoin,” officially denying any Bitcoin sales. However, DHI did not clarify the specific wallet activity nor confirm its current Bitcoin holdings.
