Block 952159 recorded the revival of this UTXO, meanwhile someone is still going all-in on the exchange contract. The ceremonial feel of physical Bitcoin, on-chain data doesn't lie.

Crypto World News reports that a rare physical Bitcoin worth $1.78 million was redeemed after 12 years. The Bitcoin comes from Casascius coins minted from 2011 to 2013. On Wednesday, its holographic seal was removed, and the stored 25 BTC (currently worth about $1.7 million) was transferred to a new wallet. Casascius coins are physical tokens created by software engineer Mike Caldwell, with denominations ranging from 0.5 to 1,000 BTC. Each coin has a Bitcoin address printed on the outside, while the matching private key is hidden beneath a tamper-evident hologram on the back. This redemption was recorded in Bitcoin block 952,159, coinciding with unusual activity in the Bitcoin UTXO set over the past week.
