A SpaceX-associated wallet moved around 2,495 Bitcoin (BTC) worth approximately $268 million to new addresses today, Arkham data shows.

The wallet, labeled as belonging to Elon Musk’s space exploration company, last showed activity on July 22 when it transferred $153 million in Bitcoin, its first movement in three years.

After today’s transfer, the SpaceX-linked wallet maintains a balance of 5,790 Bitcoin, valued at approximately $625 million at current prices.

Bitcoin fell below $108,000 amid US-China trade tensions and global macroeconomic uncertainties, which triggered risk-off sentiment across global markets. ETF data shows investors pulling funds, with US spot Bitcoin ETFs posting $40M in outflows on Monday, including $100M in redemptions from BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust.

Market strategists expect heightened volatility to persist until trade conditions stabilize.
