Shares of crypto-linked stocks and miners are trading higher amid a rise in Bitcoin.

MARA Holdings's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NYSE">MARA</a>) short percent of float has fallen 7.72% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 87.53 million shares sold short, which is 32.64% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.75 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for MARA Holdings has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing MARA Holdings's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, MARA Holdings's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.97%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Shares of crypto-linked stocks are trading higher amid a rise in the price of Bitcoin. The commodity, on Friday, fell due to Israel's strikes on Iran and may be seeing new strength this session after reports alleged that Iran wants to de-escalate hostilities with Israel.

Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) still riding high &#8211; and JPMorgan thinks the miners are just getting warmed up. In a fresh note, analyst Reginald L. Smith boosted price targets on several top <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto">crypto mining stocks</a>, pointing to higher spot BTC assumptions and improving mining profitability. 
CleanSpark Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLSK#NASDAQ">CLSK</a>) leads the charge with a potential 44% upside, while Riot Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIOT#NASDAQ">RIOT</a>) and MARA Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) aren't far behind, with 37% and 20% upside potential, respectively. IREN Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IREN#NASDAQ">IREN</a>) has an 18% upside potential, per Smith.

What's changed? 
JPMorgan raised its spot bitcoin forecast by 24% and now expects the network hash rate to climb 9% faster than previously estimated. That means more power—and more profit—for efficient miners.
CleanSpark's improved fleet efficiency and expanding power footprint pushed its December 2025 target to $14 from $12. Riot's power portfolio is also gaining value, now pegged at $1.6 billion thanks to strategic development across its 3.5GW+ energy network.
The bank uses a sum-of-the-parts valuation, factoring in mining operations, land and power portfolios, and Bitcoin on balance sheets.
In that last category, Mara Holdings gets a HODL boost for holding nearly 49,000 BTC, earning it a 1.3x premium on those reserves. IREN, on the other hand, gets no such bump—its lack of BTC holdings and diluted share count keep its target flat at $12.
While JPMorgan remains neutral on Cipher Mining Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CIFR#NASDAQ">CIFR</a>) and MARA, it reiterated overweight ratings on CleanSpark, Riot, and IREN, citing attractive valuations and rising demand for mining capacity.
With the crypto market shrugging off macro jitters and presidential-election-era volatility, miners could be next in line to benefit &#8211; especially if bitcoin keeps climbing and rack space remains king.

What's Going On With Bitcoin Mining Stocks MARA Holdings, Riot Platforms, CleanSpark On Monday?

According to several experts in the sector, Bitcoin ETFs and cryptocurrency-related ETFs have made significant progress since launching in January 2024 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/currency-etfs/25/01/42971053/bitcoin-etfs-enter-2025-after-massive-first-year">and setting inflow records</a>.
Here's what three Bitcoin-ETF experts had to say about the sector&#8217;s growth, why people are choosing Bitcoin ETFs, what the U.S. buying Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) could mean for demand and validation, and what comes next for cryptocurrency ETFs.
Beating Expectations: The launch of Bitcoin ETFs has been an &#8220;amazing journey&#8221; that could be &#8220;just beginning,&#8221; WisdomTree Global Head of Research Chris Gannatti said at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-tme4GtysQ">Benzinga's recent ETF event.</a>
"At WisdomTree, we've been amazed to watch the appetite, the adoption," Gannatti said.
Gannatti said it's clear there was pent-up demand for Bitcoin ETFs and everyone has now seen "incredible growth."
WisdomTree was one of the first companies with a Bitcoin ETF with the WisdomTree Bitcoin Fund (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTCW#BATS">BTCW</a>).
Bitwise Asset Management Head of Research Ryan Rasmussen echoed the early success of Bitcoin ETFs with his company behind the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BITB#NYSE">BITB</a>) and several other crypto-related ETFs.
"The adoption and performance of Bitcoin ETFs since they launched in the US since last January is just incredible," Rasmussen said.
Rasmussen said Bitcoin ETFs broke the one-year record for inflows and continue to see strong demand.
"We're extremely excited about it. Just getting started."
After the launch of the initial batch of Bitcoin ETFs came other funds like the Innovator Uncapped Bitcoin 20 Floor ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBF#BATS">QBF</a>), which offers limited downside for investors.
Innovator Director of Product Strategy Andrew Nelson said the initial growth of Bitcoin ETFs is what spurred the company launching a crypto ETF.
"There's room for everybody," Nelson said.
Nelson said Innovator's fund creates additional investment opportunities for investors and another tool in their tool kit when looking for exposure to Bitcoin.

Why Bitcoin ETFs?: When asked why there's room for Bitcoin ETFs alongside investing directly in Bitcoin, the expert panel didn't flinch.
Nelson said Bitcoin ETFs like the one from Innovator provide "unique exposure" for investors.
Summarizing his company's ETF in three sentences, he said it's, "Bitcoin, 20% max loss, and no cap."
The Innovator fund offers an uncapped upside while providing a 20% max loss each quarter for investors. Nelson said this is not something you can engineer on your own just by holding Bitcoin.
Rasmussen echoed this sentiment saying there are different things ETFs can do like derivatives and options along with getting access to "institutional grade custody" of Bitcoin.
With Bitcoin ETFs, there's less risk for asset managers than worrying about self-custody and other aspects for clients, Rasmussen added.
Countries and Companies Adding Bitcoin: Another key growth topic for Bitcoin and Bitcoin ETFs could be the stockpiling of the leading cryptocurrency by countries and companies.
Gannatti said that some see the degree of success Michael Saylor has had with Strategy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) buying Bitcoin and they want to follow it.
"People who have achieved great success get great attention," Gannatti said.
Gannatti also said the US being more crypto-friendly isn't a done deal, but things are changing.
"The current administration is pushing the ball down the field in a positive direction."
Without giving a price prediction, Gannatti said if the only goal is to get the price of Bitcoin to go up fast, the U.S. buying Bitcoin could be the quickest way.
Rasmussen highlighted the sector&#8217;s change. The fact that a person predicting some of the things that happened five years ago would have been laughed at and called crazy, he added.
"I think it's crazy that we're seeing corporations and governments buy Bitcoin, not in a bad way," Rasmussen said.
Rasmussen referenced how GameStop (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) recently bought Bitcoin. More companies are saying they're adding the cryptocurrency to hedge against national debt, inflation, and geopolitical concerns.
"I still think we're in the early stages of seeing mass adoption by governments and corporations."
Rasmussen added that, "no government wants to be the last mover when it comes to this."
Pension funds that have yet to invest in Bitcoin say they&#8217;d feel comfortable adding cryptocurrency to their portfolios if the U.S. purchases Bitcoin, the panelist added.
"I think that is one of those monumental moments,&#8221; he added.
More demand from countries and corporations could lead the price of Bitcoin higher, Nelson said.
Nelson said the idea is that high demand drives prices higher in a supply-constrained environment. The U.S. buying Bitcoin could be a positive action for the sector. Yet, Nelson added, it might not be the same initial demand that happened when Bitcoin ETFs launched.
"We think it's a positive for the space."
What's Next: Bitwise predicts Bitcoin will hit $200,000 by the end of 2025 and $1 million by 2029. Rasmussen said these are predictions and not investment advice but show confidence in the long term.
Going forward, the company is also launching more ETFs in the cryptocurrency space. This includes covered call income strategy funds around public crypto-companies like Strategy, MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) and Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>).
"We're spending a lot of time thinking about what products do investors want access to," Rasmussen said. 
Innovator has just one current cryptocurrency ETF — QBF. However, the company is closely monitoring the space and the options market to see where the demand is, Nelson said, adding, "We're looking at Ethereum of course, because of its already approved nature.&#8221;
Innvoator also monitors Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) and XRP CRYPTO:XRP).

Shares of MARA Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) are trading higher Tuesday after the company reported a sharp increase in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45752589/mara-holdings-riot-platforms-cleanspark-shares-rise-following-bitcoin-production-updates-heres-how-the-miners-stacked-up-in-may">production for May</a>.
What To Know: The Bitcoin miner reported total production of 950 Bitcoin during the month, representing a 35% jump from April. MARA also earned a record 282 blocks, up 38% month-over-month, marking its best performance since the Bitcoin halving event in April 2024.
The production gains helped MARA grow its total Bitcoin holdings to 49,179 as of the end of May. The company confirmed it did not sell any of its Bitcoin during the month. CEO Fred Thiel attributed the record production to MARA's fully integrated tech stack and the performance of its self-owned MARA Pool, which outperformed the network average in block reward luck by over 10%.
The company emphasized the efficiency of running its own mining pool, which eliminates fees paid to external operators and allows it to retain full value from block rewards. Thiel added that MARA's strategy of becoming a vertically integrated digital energy and infrastructure company is intended to boost operational control and resilience amid economic uncertainty.
Investors responded positively to the operational update, which showed increases across key metrics including hashrate and average BTC produced per day. MARA's improved mining performance reflects strong execution as the company scales its infrastructure.
MARA Price Action: Mara Holdings shares were up 6.79% at $15.34 at the time of writing, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2"> Benzinga Pro.</a>

MARA Holdings reported a total energized hashrate of 58.3 EH/s&nbsp;at month&#8217;s end, up from 57.3 EH/s at the end of April. 
&#8220;Our fully integrated tech stack is a key differentiator, and MARA Pool is the only self-owned and operated mining pool among public miners, offering greater control and efficiency. Operating our pool means no fees to external operators and retention of the full value of block rewards. Production in May also benefitted from block reward luck,&#8221; said&nbsp;Fred Thiel, chairman and CEO of MARA Holdings.
MARA Holdings shares were up 5.47% at $15.15 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
RIOT Production Update: Riot mined 514 bitcoin in May, up 11% month-over-month and 139% on a year-over-year basis. The company said it held 19,225 bitcoin at the end of the month.

&#8220;As we enter June, we&#8217;re positioned to become the first public&nbsp;Bitcoin&nbsp;miner to achieve 50 EH/s entirely through self-operated infrastructure. This milestone reflects the strength of our vertically integrated model, allowing us to scale efficiently, retain operational control, and protect margins,&#8221; said Zach Bradford, president and CEO of CleanSpark.
CleanSpark shares were up 4.70% at $9.01 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
