BTC Celebrates Genesis Day

Block 0 of BTC: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Genesis_block

As Bitcoin celebrates 'Genesis Day', marking the first ever BTC block mined on 3 January 2009, it made a temporary climb to US$90,000 to start the week. It quickly fell back into a narrow $87,000 to $89,000 range, as it recorded the first time that it closed a post-halving year in the red. Ether hovered around $2,900, reflecting a technically oversold, fundamentally uncertain mood.

US spot BTC ETFs spilled $940 million from Christmas week up until early this week. ETH spot ETFs witnessed outflows of $178 million over the same period. In spite of cooling ETF demand, digital asset treasury (DAT) giants Strategy and BitMine were seen making their final accumulations for 2025: 1,229 BTC and 44,000 ETH, respectively.

Altcoins displayed uneven performance; persisting interest in privacy tokens gave Zcash a push of more than 20% from the past week, and Toncoin rebounded modestly on ecosystem developments involving a TON Foundation partnership and Telegram Mini App gaming tokens.

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) gained about 5% over the past week amid anticipation of its commodities-focused real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation.

The Fear & Greed Index remains entrenched in ‘extreme fear’ territory, while trading volumes stay anaemic — signs of an unmoving market awaiting the next nitrous booster. With Q1 rate decisions, earnings season, and geopolitical uncertainty on the horizon, whether BTC can sustain above the $90,000 threshold and set a new tone for the new year remains an open question.
