On September 15, Riot Platforms fell 5.23% in regular trading, trading at $19.895/share, with turnover of $59.40 million. The decline was triggered by on-chain monitoring data revealing that Riot Platforms' Foundry Digital mining pool wallet transferred 119.63 BTC, valued at approximately $9.3 million, to NYDIG Custody.
Notably, Riot had previously transferred 500 BTC to NYDIG custodial accounts in early July across two transactions totaling roughly $30.9 million, which the market interpreted as preparation to sell. The latest transfer has reignited concerns over the company's continued liquidation of its BTC reserves. Adding to the pressure, the broader cryptocurrency sector traded lower ahead of a procedural vote on the CLARITY Act in the U.S. Senate, with Bitcoin falling below $76,800. Peers including Circle, Coinbase, and Strategy also declined sharply, reflecting broad sector weakness.
