Bitcoin Surges to New Heights, Boosting Mining and Treasury Stocks

Bitcoin's recent high has driven remarkable gains in shares of both crypto miners and treasury firms.

Bitcoin recently reached a remarkable all-time high exceeding $126,000 on a Monday, sending share prices for various Bitcoin miners and certain treasury companies soaring.

Most equities for these firms saw substantial increases, with some rising by double-digit percentages by the end of the trading day.

Significant Gains in Crypto Mining

Among crypto miners, Argo Blockchain emerged as a standout, increasing its share price by over 96% on the London Stock Exchange, closing at 5.3 British pence ($0.07). Other competitors in the U.S. similarly observed significant increases of over 20%.

The treasury segment also benefited; for instance, Eightco Holdings (ORBS), associated with Worldcoin (WLD), reported a 34% gain, ending trading at $11. However, this is still a decrease from its peak of $45 earlier in 2025 after it disclosed intentions to acquire the token.

The surge in Bitcoin (BTC) values coincided with an overall market rally as Bitcoin’s performance becomes more integrated with traditional financial markets, with the tech-heavy S&P 500 index rising by 0.36% on Tuesday.

Technical Gains for Mining Stocks

In the U.S., companies involved in crypto mining saw a boost due to Bitcoin’s ascent. HIVE Digital Technologies (HIVE) concluded the trading day with an increase of more than 25% and continued its upward momentum post-market with an additional gain of 11%, finishing at $6.18.

Assets of its competitors, Bitfarms (BITF) and IREN (IREN), also appreciated by approximately 15%, finishing at $3.46 and $57.75, respectively, rising further after hours.

Major player Riot Platforms (RIOT) saw an increase of 10.9%, ending at $21.56, while MARA Holdings (MARA) surged by 9.3% to $20.57.

Treasury Shares Reflect Mixed Outcomes

Companies focused on the acquisition and storage of Bitcoin reported varied results on that Monday. DDC Enterprise (DDC), a Hong Kong-based Bitcoin treasury firm, led with a notable 22% increase. Conversely, prominent BTC purchaser, Strategy (MSTR), up by 2.3%, saw declines in other major Bitcoin treasuries like GD Culture Group (GDC) and Strive (ASST), which dropped by 4.2% and 2.7%, correspondingly.

Certain leading Bitcoin asset companies finished the day lower or unchanged, with Kindly MD ending down 8.8% at $1.03 and Semler Scientific (SMLR) managing a minor gain of only 0.62%.

Bitcoin Peaks Above $126,000

The cryptocurrency’s market improvements occur alongside increased interest from institutional investors and the weakening U.S. dollar, which has propelled investors towards non-American assets amidst the fluctuating tariffs under Donald Trump’s administration.

In addition, Ether (ETH) has seen a 3% increase over the last day, trading at $4,675, just 5.3% below its record high from late August, crossing over $4,900.
