Crypto January 2025: Key Events to Watch – Part 2

January 2025 is off to a thrilling start in the crypto world, with major events shaping the future of tokens, exchanges, and the broader market.

Crypto January 2025: Key Events to Watch - Part 1

The crypto world is buzzing with important events that could shake up the market. 

Here’s a look at the major crypto events happening over the next week and why they’re worth paying attention to.

Jan 6: Binance – $DAR Delisting for Rebranding

On January 6, Binance will delist $DAR for rebranding. This means $DAR will no longer be traded on the platform, but the move could signal a fresh start for the token. It’s a common strategy to revamp a project and attract new interest. If you’re holding $DAR, it’s time to decide if you want to stick with it or take your gains and run.

Jan 6: $SMILE – 2nd Airdrop Claim

January 6 also marks the second airdrop claim for $SMILE. Airdrops are a great way for projects to reward loyal holders or attract new users, so be sure to claim your tokens if you’re eligible.

Jan 7: $DUSK – Mainnet Launch

Also on January 7, $DUSK will launch its mainnet. A mainnet launch is a big milestone for any blockchain project, signaling it’s ready for real-world use. This could bring new functionality and growth to $DUSK, so it’s definitely worth watching.

Jan 8: Xterio – $XTER TGE

On January 8, Xterio will launch the $XTER Token Generation Event (TGE). TGEs are crucial events where new tokens become available for trading. If you’re looking to get in early on a potentially hot project, this could be your chance.

Jan 8: Bybit – French User Service Discontinued

Also on January 8, Bybit will discontinue its services for French users. This is a significant move, as it may affect thousands of traders. If you’re a Bybit user in France, you’ll need to find an alternative platform.

Jan 9: $ZEUS – Starting Epoch 2

On the same day, $ZEUS will begin Epoch 2. This phase marks a new chapter for the project, potentially introducing new features or updates. Be sure to track its progress as it could offer valuable opportunities.

Jan 9: $CRO – zkEVM Mainnet Upgrade

Also on January 9, $CRO will upgrade its zkEVM mainnet. This is a major upgrade for the Crypto.com network, enhancing scalability and efficiency. If $CRO can execute this smoothly, it could boost its value and adoption.

Jan 11: $APT – $103M Token Unlock

Finally, on January 11, $APT will unlock $103 million worth of tokens. As with other token unlocks, this could create some price movement as more tokens become available to the public.

January’s crypto calendar is packed with pivotal events that could impact everything from token prices to market sentiment. Here is the first part.
