Bitcoiners Celebrate ‘Genesis Day’ As US Debt Swells Past $38 Trillion

The US federal debt surpassed $38 trillion on January 3, 2026, coinciding with the Bitcoin community's observance of Genesis Day—the anniversary of Bitcoin's first block mined in 2009. The timing highlighted a contrast between rising public debt and Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million coins. Treasury data shows the debt has grown sharply from $34 trillion in early 2024, increasing by about $6 billion daily due to sustained deficits, higher interest payments, and government spending. Economists warn that rising debt could crowd out other fiscal priorities, while some investors view Bitcoin as a hedge against fiscal risks. Bitcoin was trading near $91,487 amid the discussions.
