The government could also be looking to custody or trade the Bitcoin, based on a recent partnership with Coinbase Prime.
As the unlocking process progresses, Coinbase Custody will play a crucial role in managing the vesting of these tokens.
Coinbase Prime has stated that it will no longer be holding 49 alternative coins by the end of this month.

The MakerDAO community has approved a proposal that will see the crypto protocol custody as much as $1.6 billion USD Coin (USDC) with cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase.
The USDC will be held via Coinbase’s institutional custody platform Coinbase Prime, and offer a yield of 1.5%, with custodied funds accessible round-the-clock to the DAO Peg Stability Module as it looks to help push the overall growth of the stablecoin and DeFi ecosystems.
According to MakerDAO, 75% of the community voted to ratify the Coinbase Institutional Rewards proposal, paving the way for the move.
Coinbase Institutional Rewards (MIP81) has been approved by Maker Governance through a Ratification Poll.

Coinbase believes the proposal will also help grow the USDC under custody, expanding the stablecoin’s institutional reach and rewards.
The crypto exchange, among the consortium that backed the launch of USDC and works towards its growth, believes the USD-pegged stablecoin is on track to becoming a major player in a new financial paradigm.
Jennifer Senhaji, the head of growth and business development at MakerDAO, said in a statement:
“This proposed collaboration with Coinbase follows an approved signal of intent by the MakerDAO community to increasingly invest Maker’s collateral into short-term bonds. It was agreed that any collateral deployed should meet the criteria of offering safety, cost structure, and flexibility. Coinbase is uniquely situated to offer a USDC Rewards Program that fulfils these criteria.”
The partnership will also enable MakerDAO, the issuer of DAI, advance its mission of promoting global crypto adoption via decentralised finance.
