BlockBeats News, January 7 — According to the latest production and operations report released in December, publicly listed Bitcoin mining company Riot Platforms sold a total of 2,201 BTC during November and December last year, netting nearly $200 million.
It is reported that Riot Platforms held 18,005 BTC at the end of the year, which is valued at approximately $1.65 billion at current prices. However, this number is down by over 1,300 BTC from its October holdings of 19,324 BTC, and is only 293 BTC higher than the year-end balance of the previous year. In stark contrast to 2024, when the company did not sell any Bitcoin and instead increased its Bitcoin reserves worth over $500 million.
VanEck Digital Asset Head Matthew Sigel pointed out that the recent selling activity indicates the company is working on transitioning into the artificial intelligence sector.

# Gold and BTC Diverge: A Battle Over the Definition of Safe-Haven Assets
# Woke up, and BTC pulled back to 70k. On the drive this morning, the radio was reporting that gold came under pressure as the Fed's March FOMC meeting failed to meet rate cut expectations, erasing all gains for the year so far.
Recently, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have escalated, causing global capital markets to shake. According to classical narratives in traditional finance, geopolitical conflicts should push up gold prices—a logic rooted in gold's thousands of years of safe-haven attributes, long since becoming the instinctive reaction of market participants.
