The Bitcoin Key Metrics Dashboard's top 100 wallets holding bitcoin, we find that the federal government is included among these largest bitcoin holders.
Since 2020, the federal government has seized at least 215,000 bitcoins.
On March 9, 2023, approximately 49,000 Bitcoins seized by federal government law enforcement moved up the chain, of which approximately 9, 900 Bitcoins worth a total of $221.7 million were sent to Coinbase addresses.

As a result, we instantly track the top three bitcoin wallets seized by the federal government to date based on the Bitcoin Key Indicators Dashboard, which predicts market movements through wallet funding movements:

November 2020: 69, 369 Bitcoins linked to an anonymous criminal known as Individual X, who stole Bitcoins from the dark web marketplace 'Silk Road' between 2013-14

January 2022: 94, 643 Bitcoins linked to Ilya Lichtenstein and his wife, Heather Morgan, after the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) charged the couple with participating in laundering $4.5 billion in the 2016 Bitfinex hack.

March 2022: 51, 326 Bitcoins seized from James Zhong, who is guilty of wire fraud for stealing Bitcoins in September 2012 from the darknet 'Silk Road'.

Note that this is a bottom-line estimate of the federal government's bitcoin holdings based on publicly available information.
Large bitcoin transactions on the federal government chain in recent years:

1. approximately 49,000 bitcoins moved on the federal government chain on March 9, 2023, from bitcoins stolen in September 2012 by James Zhong from the darknet 'Silk Road'.
The funds, approximately 3.91 million bitcoins, were worth $875.3 million at the time and appear to have been an internal transfer.
However, 99,000 bitcoins worth $221.7 million were sent to the Coinbase address at the time, sparking speculation that the move could signal a sale of the seized bitcoins.

This is not the first time the federal government has sold seized bitcoins, in 2013, law enforcement shut down the darknet 'Silk Road' and seized 173, 991 bitcoins during the pursuit of the case, of which 144, 336 came from the darknet 'Silk Road ' marketplace creator Ross Ulbricht's wallet.
The federal government auctioned off these bitcoins in four separate auctions in 2014 and 2015, with venture capitalist Tim Draper purchasing 30,000 of them for $18.7 million.

2. we estimate that as of march 22, 2023, the federal government's current balance of bitcoins was 205, 515, valued at approximately $5.8 billion.
We estimate that as of March 22, 2023, the federal government owned about 1.06% of the circulating supply of bitcoins, and just a year ago, the federal government's bitcoin holdings were worth slightly more than $10 billion at their peak.

3, By cross-referencing our findings with our previous dashboard on key Bitcoin metrics, we note that the federal government owns two of the top ten Bitcoin wallets.
The first wallet is associated with 94, 643 bitcoins seized from Ilya Lichtenstein and his wife, Heather Morgan, who the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) alleges were involved in laundering $4.5 billion in the 2016 Bitfinex hack.
The second wallet is linked to 69, 369 Bitcoins seized from an anonymous criminal known as Individual X, who stole the funds from the dark web internet marketplace 'Silk Road' between 2013 and 2014.
