Bitcoin’s price hit a record high above $126,000 on Monday, triggering significant gains for companies tied to the cryptocurrency market, especially publicly traded miners and treasury firms, according to CoinGecko data.
Argo Blockchain, a U.K.-based crypto miner, saw its shares jump 96% on the London Stock Exchange, closing at about $0.07. U.S. rivals also experienced strong trading days, with HIVE Digital Technologies gaining more than 25% and moving up another 11% after hours to $6.18. Bitfarms and IREN both saw increases of around 15%, with ongoing momentum after the market closed.
Meanwhile, major miner Riot Platforms climbed 10.9% to $21.56, and MARA Holdings rose 9.3% to $20.57. Companies holding large cryptocurrency portfolios, sometimes called treasury companies, posted mixed results. DDC Enterprise, based in Hong Kong and listed in New York, gained 22%. In contrast, Strategy (MSTR) edged up 2.3%, while GD Culture Group (GDC) lost 4.2% and Strive (ASST) ended down 2.7%. Kindly MD posted the sharpest loss, falling 8.8% to $1.03, while Semler Scientific stayed nearly flat with a 0.62% rise.
Other altcoin treasury firms outperformed, including the BNB-holding company CEA Industries, up 15.6% to $9.40, and Solana investor Forward Industries, up 12.8% to $25.43. Crypto-focused company Eightco Holdings, which is connected to Worldcoin (WLD), gained more than 34%, closing at $11, but remained below its previous peak of $45.
The sharp rise in Bitcoin’s price has been associated with growing institutional investment and a weaker U.S. dollar, as investors move money outside U.S. markets due in part to shifting tariff policies. Ethereum (ETH) also rose 3% in the last day, trading at $4,675—about 5% below its earlier record.
