According to on-chain monitoring shared by blockchain analysts, leading cryptocurrency services company Galaxy Digital transferred 900 BTC to a wallet created just before the December 9, 2025 transfer.
The value of these coins was approximately $81.6 million at the time of transfer, which means the average price per Bitcoin is approximately $90,656.
A large Bitcoin transfer has been recorded.
According to the on-chain tracker, the receiving address showed no previous history, which caught our attention as transfers of this scale tend to leave a clear trail and invite scrutiny.
The initial notice came from a blockchain detective who reported the transaction and posted the receiving address for the public to see. There has been no public statement from Galaxy Digital explaining this move.
What movement means
According to the report, large-scale moves by companies like Galaxy Digital often involve storage reorganizations, customer orders, or over-the-counter transactions. However, moving to a new address alone does not prove that a sale has occurred.

Coins can be refrigerated, moved between internal wallets, or prepared for over-the-counter trading. Public data only shows on-chain flows. The motive has not yet been confirmed.
Background of Galaxy Digital
Galaxy Digital has handled several very large transactions this year, and these records add context to its recent moves.
In early 2025, the company facilitated a large transfer involving long-dormant early Bitcoin holders, a series of transactions worth tens of thousands of BTC that attracted broad market attention.
These previous actions demonstrated that Galaxy acts as a key intermediary when large holders decide to move or sell their coins.
Market reaction and risks
Traders have closely watched price movements after transfers are seen, but simply moving BTC between wallets does not always cause market fluctuations.
If a coin enters an exchange or is offered for public sale, it is more likely to have an impact on its price. If they remain in custody or are split into smaller distributions, the market effect may be weakened.
There is currently no public evidence that the transfer resulted in an immediate sale or liquidation of any funds.
What to watch next
Observers will look for subsequent on-chain flows. For example, whether the new address continues to send coins, and whether the connected wallet shows signs of exchange deposits.
Analysts will also observe any official comments from Galaxy Digital or disclosures related to customer orders.
Until then, the facts are limited to the Bitcoin transaction records themselves and the valuation snapshots reported when the movements were first discovered.
