Crypto Stocks That Might Make You Rich or Not: The Wild Week Ahead

by

The final week of August rolled in with all the enthusiasm of a Monday morning alarm – slow, dismal, and daydreaming about a vacation nobody booked. Crypto markets sighed like a cat caught in a rainstorm, with trading activity doing its best impression of a turtle on sedatives and global market cap slipping by 6

But, just when you thought it was safe to check your portfolio, a few brave US crypto stocks decided to shake things up and prove that maybe – just maybe – there’s still some life left in the somewhat-dead crypto carnival ride. So buckle up, folks. This week’s looking like a rollercoaster with a questionable safety record.

Bitdeer Technologies Group (BTDR)

On Monday, Bitdeer’s shares closed at $14.29, up a modest 4.46

Q2 2025 brought in an eye-popping $155.6 million, up from $99.2 million a year prior – apparently, a lot of people are mining, or at least pretending to. But here’s the catch: operating costs nearly doubled to $142.8 million. So, gross profit? A grand total of $12.8 million. Slightly better than a kick in the pants, but the icing on the cake was a net loss of $147.7 million – up from $17.7 million, proving that sometimes numbers lie, but losses rarely do.

Expect volatility, dear reader. Pre-market, the stock is trading at $13.98. If demand surges, it might hop to $14.77 – or, heaven forbid, plummet to $13.57 if everyone realizes they’d rather do literally anything else.

Pro tip: Always bet on volatility. It’s the only thing guaranteed in crypto.

IREN Limited (IREN)

IREN finished Monday at a cool $26.45, a 14.80

On August 28, IREN bragged about snagging NVIDIA Preferred Partner status and dropping about $168 million on an additional 2,400 GPUs – because apparently, more is more when it comes to machines that look like they came from a sci-fi movie. All in all, they now own a fleet of 10,900 GPUs. If that wasn’t enough of a flex, IREN in pre-market is trading at $26.13, showing some hesitation. If sellers get aggressive, it might dip below $25.62 – or, in the best case, bounce back to $29.50 if enthusiasm reigns supreme.

Hold onto your hats; the GPU army might be the only thing keeping IREN afloat – or sinking it faster than you can say “Silicon Valley.”

Hut 8 Corp (HUT)

HUT closed at $26.73, a tiny 0.83

In pre-market, HUT hovers around $26, but beware – if demand fades, it might drop below $24.74. Or, if we’re lucky, it could climb to $27.40 and pretend everything’s fine.

Stay tuned: If the demand holds, this stock might be your new favorite rollercoaster – or a very boring line at the amusement park.
