Anchorage Digital Acquires 10,141 BTC Worth $1.19 Billion

Anchorage Digital, a leading U.S.-based digital asset bank, has purchased 10,141 Bitcoin—valued at approximately $1.19 billion—over a nine-hour span through multiple wallets. The large-scale acquisition reflects rising institutional demand for Bitcoin as a reserve asset and highlights the growing role of regulated financial institutions in the crypto market. Analysts note Anchorage likely used over-the-counter channels to accumulate the BTC discreetly, minimizing market disruption. This move further validates Bitcoin’s adoption by mainstream financial players and could signal a new wave of institutional inflows.
