๐ต This significant liquidation is likely due to miners needing to cover operational costs, such as electricity bills and loan repayments for mining equipment.

Amazon Shareholders Propose Bitcoin Reserve! ๐ฅ
๐ The National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), representing Amazon shareholders, has suggested the tech giant's board explore converting at least 5% of its assets into Bitcoin. This proposal will be reviewed during Amazonโs 2025 annual shareholders' meeting.
