Special Report Is 2026 The Year to Load Up on Crypto Miners?By Nathan Reiff. Published: 1/5/2026. TeraWulf Inc. (NASDAQ: WULF) Cipher Mining Inc. (NASDAQ: CIFR) In 2025, Bitcoin soared to an all-time high of around $126,000 amid other wins for the cryptocurrency industry—including easing regulations, new stablecoin legislation, and the impending launch of a flurry of new crypto-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs). However, the world's largest digital token couldn't sustain the rally and has since pulled back to below $94,000. Buy This AI Stock Tomorrow Morning?
A former hedge fund manager known for spotting early winners is sounding the alarm once again. He called Netflix at $7.78 (up 4,200% since), Apple at $0.35 (up 20,000%), and Amazon at a split-adjust $2.41 (up 3,200%). Now he's turning his focus to a little-known AI company that just earned a near-perfect score in his new proprietary stock grading system. In a brand-new presentation, he reveals the name, ticker symbol, and why this could be the smartest AI move of the year... especially if you're over 50. Click here to watch it before word gets out. Quick Look - Many Bitcoin mining companies saw share prices triple or more in the last year, despite some rockiness in the final weeks of 2025.
- Companies in this space remain highly speculative, particularly given the trend toward shifting operations in favor of AI and data center applications.
- IREN, TeraWulf, and Cipher Mining are all worth a closer look based on lucrative contracts and the potential for continued momentum.
Crypto enthusiasts aren't deterred by the end-of-year pullback, expecting that a delayed response to regulatory shifts could send Bitcoin and other popular tokens higher in 2026. At the same time, precious metals have largely continued their multi-quarter rally with minimal interruption. Are investors fleeing cash and traditional equities for these safe havens instead of the riskier speculative play that cryptos represent? While no one knows for sure, often-overlooked crypto mining companies performed strongly over the past year, and bulls on digital tokens may expect those rallies to continue. Here are three companies that may be worth a closer look. Largest Bitcoin Miner By Market Cap Toying With an AI Pivot IREN Ltd. (NASDAQ: IREN) is a Bitcoin miner based in Australia and, at about $14 billion in market value, is the largest publicly traded miner in the world by that metric. After a tremendously volatile 2025 that started with shares trading around $12 and ended more than three times higher, analysts expect IREN stock to climb by more than 40% in the new year. Despite a pullback late in the year, there are signs that IREN is beginning 2026 with a meaningful rebound. Like many crypto miners, IREN has explored pivoting part of its operations toward data centers and AI. As a vertically integrated firm, the company benefits from owning land, hardware and data center operations. It appears positioned to shift toward AI thanks to a multiyear contract reportedly worth almost $10 billion with Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT). That said, sentiment on IREN is mixed. The company reported better-than-expected earnings per share (EPS) last quarter, but it missed on revenue. Short interest spiked toward the end of the year, although it has improved by almost 7% in the past month. Whether or not it successfully pivots toward AI, IREN remains a highly speculative and risky investment.
