Cointribune, citing data released by Lookonchain on November 10, reports that 14 publicly traded companies have sold or transferred approximately 108,247 bitcoins since January 2026. At the reported valuation, those movements represent about $8.08 billion in bitcoin reserves.

The activity is concentrated among major bitcoin miners, with MARA and Riot Platforms together accounting for 56.2% of the total, according to Cointribune’s summary of the Lookonchain data. The report also says that some companies have used their reserves to repay debts and finance artificial-intelligence development, adding debt management and technology investment to the motivations behind the transfers. No other outlet is included in the supplied coverage, so the company count, bitcoin amount, estimated value and miner concentration are presented as Cointribune’s account of Lookonchain’s dataset. The underlying data should be distinguished from a broader independently corroborated market trend. Bitcoin is trading at $73,197, down 2.81% over the past 24 hours and 5.22% over seven days, while its market capitalization stands at $1.47 trillion. The wider crypto market has an overall capitalization of $2.5 trillion and is broadly lower, with the Fear & Greed index at 32, indicating a Fear reading. Bitcoin’s network hashrate is 964 EH/s and difficulty is 148.4T, according to mempool.space. Together, the reserve movements and softer market conditions put corporate bitcoin supply and miner finances in focus, while future activity will depend on the scale and purpose of further company transactions.
