Some of these Bitcoins have been sold, while others are still held in government reserves. According to the latest data, the US controls over 200,000 BTC, followed by China with 194,000 BTC, the UK with 61,000 BTC, and Germany with 42,000 BTC.<\/p>\n<p><em class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\">Feel free to share your thoughts on the topic in the comments.
