Blockchain Sleuth Spots Gamestop Shifting 100 Bitcoin to Coinbase Prime

According to onchain analyst Sani, Gamestop—the specialty retailer known for video games, consumer electronics, and gaming merch—moved 100 BTC, valued at roughly $9.5 million, over to Coinbase Prime, the crypto heavyweights brokerage arm.

Reportedly, Gamestop shifted 100 BTC to Coinbase Prime on Jan. 17, 2026. The move was flagged by Sani, the onchain analyst who runs timechainindex.com. “Gamestop sent 100 BTC to Coinbase Prime,” Sani noted on X on Jan. 18, sharing the transaction details via a screenshot capturing the onchain movement.

The transaction displays two outputs—100 BTC and 0.00023787 BTC—originating from addresses linked to Gamestop and tagged as Coinbase Custody. Roughly 711.11667612 BTC remained parked in a Coinbase Custody wallet. Coinbase Custody serves as the firm‘s arm for secure offline, or cold, storage of digital assets. The 100 BTC, meanwhile, was routed to Coinbase Prime, the company’s institutional trading venue.

The publicly traded firm Gamestop (NYSE: GME) disclosed on May 28, 2025, that it held 4,710 BTC on its balance sheet. That tally slots it into the 22nd position among publicly listed companies maintaining bitcoin treasuries. Even if 100 BTC were unloaded, Gamestop would still hold the 22nd spot, sitting comfortably above Boyaa Interactive International Limited‘s 4,091 BTC cache. If the transfer does amount to a sale and accounts for less than 10% of consolidated total assets, disclosure can wait until Gamestop’s first-quarter 2026 earnings report.
