Tulli, Finland’s customs agency, has 1,666 Bitcoins in their possession, which is currently worth around $15 million.

According to a report from Finland's national public broadcasting firm Yle, the agency had seized the Bitcoins years ago in a major drug bust but has yet to sell the digital assets. Tulli had plans to auction off the Bitcoins in 2018, but called it off due to fear that they would just end up back in the hands of criminals.
