BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) stock slides after $14.2B crypto stash update as share vote nears

BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) stock slides after $14.2B crypto stash update as share vote nears

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 20:50 (ET) — Market closed Shares of BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) closed down 3.1% at $32.33 on Tuesday. The stock traded between $31.38 and $34.04, with about 40.5 million shares changing hands. StockAnalysis The Las Vegas-based firm has pushed into a “digital-asset treasury” play — a company whose balance sheet is dominated by crypto rather than operating assets. That can make BMNR trade more like a proxy for ether prices and risk appetite than for day-to-day mining fundamentals. That model is drawing fresh attention after index provider MSCI said it will not implement a proposal

IREN stock drops after-hours as traders cool on CES AI buzz and crypto beta

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 19:15 EST — After-hours IREN Ltd shares fell 4.8% to $45.91 in after-hours trading on Tuesday, giving back part of the prior session’s sharp rally. The slide followed a volatile start to 2026 for the Nasdaq-listed company, which had closed at $48.24 on Monday after a roughly 13% jump, data and market commentary showed. MarketBeat The moves matter now because investors are treating IREN as a high-beta proxy for two themes that have driven price action this week: bitcoin and demand for AI computing capacity. At CES in Las Vegas, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said

Coinbase (COIN) stock slips after-hours as CEO sale-plan filing follows Goldman upgrade

New York, January 6, 2026, 18:29 EST — After-hours Coinbase Global shares fell 1.7% to $250.56 in after-hours trading on Tuesday, paring gains from a rally sparked by a bullish Goldman Sachs call a day earlier. Bitcoin was down about 0.6% at $93,442, pressuring crypto-linked shares. Traders have been treating Coinbase as a high-beta proxy for crypto activity, with the stock moving quickly on shifts in bitcoin and brokerage sentiment.

MSCI hits pause on crypto index kick-out plan — Strategy pops after-hours

MSCI hits pause on crypto index kick-out plan — Strategy pops after-hours

New York, January 6, 2026, 18:07 (EST) MSCI said on Tuesday it has decided “not to implement” a proposal to exclude digital asset treasury companies from its MSCI Global Investable Market Indexes as part of its February 2026 index review, and will instead open a wider consultation on the treatment of non-operating companies. https://app2.msci.com/webapp/index_ann/DocGet?format=html&lang=en&pub_key=DD3Olh5uInk%3D The decision matters because MSCI benchmarks are widely used by passive funds that track indexes. A removal can force automatic selling, while inclusion can keep a stock in front of large pools of index-linked money. MSCI’s stance was not a clean all-clear. It said companies on

Strategy Inc (MSTR) stock jumps after hours after MSCI drops index-exclusion plan for bitcoin treasuries

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 17:39 EST — After-hours Strategy Inc (MSTR) shares rose 5.1% to $166 in after-hours trading on Tuesday after MSCI said it would not implement a proposal to exclude “digital asset treasury companies” — firms that hold large crypto positions on their balance sheets — from its global stock indexes. MSCI said companies with digital asset holdings representing 50% or more of total assets would keep their current index treatment for now, while it opens a broader review of non-operating firms and freezes some inputs used to set index weights.

Bitmine (BMNR) stock dips after company says crypto-and-cash holdings hit $14.2 billion

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:54 EST — Regular session Shares of Bitmine Immersion Technologies Inc (BMNR) fell 2.1% to $32.65 in afternoon trade on Tuesday, after swinging between $31.41 and $34.13 on volume of about 34 million shares.

MARA stock slips as bitcoin retreats; Morgan Stanley ETF filing keeps crypto shares in focus

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:30 EST — Regular session Shares of MARA Holdings fell 1.4% to $10.45 in afternoon trade on Tuesday as bitcoin slid about 2.3%, pulling back from an early-year rebound in the token. The stock has traded between $9.97 and $10.68 so far in the session, with the $10 mark back in focus as a near-term pivot for traders. The move matters now because bitcoin miners such as MARA often trade as a high-volatility proxy for the cryptocurrency, amplifying swings in sentiment around crypto prices and regulation. Morgan Stanley on Tuesday filed for exchange-traded funds, or

Bitdeer (BTDR) stock slides as bitcoin dips and lawsuit deadline nears

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:12 EST — Regular session Shares of Bitdeer Technologies Group fell 4.6% to $11.91 in afternoon trading on Tuesday, extending choppy moves for the bitcoin miner after a sharp rise in the prior session. The stock tracked a dip in bitcoin, which was down about 2.2% at around $92,297. Miners often move more than the cryptocurrency because their revenues and margins can swing with token prices and network conditions. The drop also comes as fresh law-firm notices circulated on Tuesday reminding investors of a pending securities class action and a Feb. 2 deadline to seek

TeraWulf stock slides late Tuesday as bitcoin retreats; what WULF traders are watching next

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 3:24 PM EST — Regular session Shares of TeraWulf Inc (WULF.O) fell 2.2% to $13.32 in late afternoon trading on Tuesday, tracking a broader dip in bitcoin that weighed on some crypto-linked stocks. The move matters now because TeraWulf trades as a high-beta proxy for crypto prices and risk appetite, meaning small shifts in bitcoin can drive outsized swings in related equities. Traders have also been recalibrating expectations after a strong start to 2026 for major tokens, leaving less room for disappointment on days when crypto momentum fades.

Strategy (MSTR) stock slips as bitcoin falls and filing flags $17.4 billion paper loss

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:06 EST — Regular session Strategy Inc shares fell about 5% to $156.41 in afternoon trading on Tuesday, after swinging between $154.14 and $167.05. Bitcoin was down about 2.2% at around $92,362. The moves matter because investors often treat Strategy — formerly MicroStrategy — as a leveraged proxy for bitcoin. When the coin swings, the stock can move harder, and the accounting swings can dominate what the software business earns. A regulatory filing on Monday showed Strategy booked a $17.44 billion unrealized loss on digital assets in the fourth quarter and a $5.40 billion unrealized
