@Nessava There was no choice but to sell them.
The state is not allowed to speculate with confiscated capital, but must secure the funds.
BTC could just as well be at USD 1000 now and people would ask "Why didn't they sell?".

So gold is also sold directly if it has been confiscated?

@Staatsmann Yes, we would need a change of direction in Germany in terms of speculative goods and investments. Thank goodness there is now slowly a change in thinking. Nevertheless, the FDP (even if it is driving this change) is unfortunately unelectable for me due to its cooperation with our fascist party...

•@user5ca946a11b6a4278 Yes, of course. Just like all other non-monetary assets that could lose value. The point is that if it goes wrong and has to be returned, the state is not liable

@Lukas1000 Asset protection will continue in the future with the confiscation of capital. 😅
This has less to do with crypto, because the same would also happen with shares, as the state is not allowed to enrich itself with these things either.

•@user5ca946a11b6a4278 Correct, they would also be transferred to the market during confiscation in order to secure the capital.
Real estate is also frozen, but not sold directly.
