Crypto Mining Stock Performances Diverge Sharply

The crypto mining industry is anything but dull in 2025. As of stats collected on July 8, 2025, Galaxy Digital Holdings Ltd. holds the largest by market cap at $7.48 billion, despite a 0.97% daily decline and a 12.68% drop over the past five days. On the other hand, MARA Holdings saw a 4.63% daily gain and an 11.59% weekly rise. Whereas Core Scientific, Inc. declined 5.46% daily and 18.72% weekly.

Heavyweights in the sector are feeling the heat—some more than others. Riot Platforms gained 0.17% on the day and 2.66% weekly. IREN Limited posted a 71.99% year-to-date (YTD) gain. Cleanspark, Inc. rose 25.95% YTD, while Bitdeer Technologies Group fell 41.48% YTD. Cipher Mining, Inc. advanced 29.95% YTD, and Bit Digital, Inc. surged 61.90% over the week.

One company, however, is mining more than just coins—it seems to be striking gold with investors. Bitmine Immersion Technologies led all miners with a 1,329.48% YTD increase. The U.S.-based firm, which trades on the NYSE American under the symbol BMNR, attributes its growth to the use of immersion cooling technology, green mining practices, and expansion into low-cost energy regions.

Furthermore, its strategic pivot toward ethereum (ETH) and a $250 million capital raise contributed to a recent surge in investor interest. The company operates sites in Texas, Kentucky, and Trinidad & Tobago, and also offers mining-as-a-service (MaaS). By contrast, Bitfufu, Bitfarms, and HIVE Digital all posted YTD declines.

Northern Data AG fell 45.13%, and Canaan, Inc. declined 65.10%, the steepest drop among the top 20. Neptune Digital Assets Corp. closed the list with a $129 million market cap and a 43.66% YTD gain. On the mining front, bitcoin miners are enjoying a boost thanks to a higher hashprice—the estimated earnings per petahash per second (PH/s)—which has climbed 11.67% compared to 30 days ago.
