US Marshals confirm near 29k BTC held by government in new FOIA disclosure

The US Marshals Service disclosed that it possesses just under 29,000 BTC, significantly lower than earlier public estimates of 200,000 BTC. This response was made to a FOIA request aimed at understanding government-held cryptocurrency.

The disclosed amount includes only officially forfeited assets, excluding those under ongoing litigation. A follow-up FOIA request is expected to clarify if Coinbase Prime manages these BTC.
