Jan. 19 — Per Lookonchain monitoring, whale address Ci8jH5 withdrew 20,000 SOL (≈$4.1M at the time) from Kraken 5 months ago and staked the tokens, earning 466 SOL (≈$62,400) in staking rewards over the period.

On January 19, Aster officially launched the ASTER Token Strategic Buyback Reserve Mechanism and kicked off automated ASTER token repurchases. Built on the platform’s fifth-phase buyback plan from last month, this mechanism dynamically allocates 20%–40% of daily platform transaction fees toward market repurchases. It maximizes repurchase effectiveness across varying market conditions while continuously reducing ASTER’s circulating supply. The initial repurchase has been automatically executed from the reserve wallet 0x5E4969C41ca9F9831468B98328A370b7AbD5a397, with on-chain verification available.

As of January 19th, per Coinglass data: - If Bitcoin drops below $91,000, cumulative liquidation strength for long positions across major centralized exchanges (CEXs) will reach $383 million. - Conversely, should Bitcoin climb above $94,000, cumulative liquidation strength for short positions on these platforms will hit $517 million. BlockBeats Note: The liquidation chart does not display the exact number of contracts or their precise value being liquidated. The bars represent the relative importance of each liquidation cluster compared to adjacent clusters — this is defined as "strength." In short, the chart shows how intensely the underlying asset’s price will react at a specific level. A taller liquidation bar means the price will face a more severe reaction from a liquidity cascade once that threshold is crossed.

On January 19, OnchainLens data shows a whale’s entire DOGE long position was liquidated during this morning’s market downturn, resulting in a $2.2 million loss. The whale still holds a 15x leveraged ETH long position, with an unrealized loss of roughly $475,000.
