The Bitcoin Historian Claims BNY's Bitcoin Position Rose More Than 77%

An account named The Bitcoin Historian said Friday, Nov. 6, that BNY increased its Bitcoin (BTC) position by more than 77%, with the position valued above $201 million. The post listed the figure as more than $201,015,183 but gave no BTC balance or valuation date. The account presented that valuation as BNY's current position. The account framed both numbers as minimums: the increase exceeded 77%, and the position's dollar value exceeded $201,015,183. It did not identify the period used to measure the increase, so the 77% figure has no stated comparison window. The post also placed a "$2.2 trillion" figure beside BNY's name without defining what the amount measured. The claim appeared in an X post by The Bitcoin Historian (@pete_rizzo_).
