The recent US government shutdown has sparked uncertainty in traditional financial markets, prompting investors to seek alternative, safer assets.
Liquidity is flowing more and more into the crypto sector as the US dollar experiences slight depreciation amid political shaking. This has improved the performance of some crypto-related stocks, coupled with ongoing ecosystem development. There are some things to watch carefully this week.

Hive Digital Technologies Ltd (Hive)
Hive Digital Shares closed at $4.46 on Friday, recording a 2.29% increase for the day. Crypto Stock is something to watch this week following strong production reports and rapid advances in new facilities in September.
In a report on October 6th, the mining giant announced that it produced 267 BTC in September, an 8% increase per month from 247 BTC in August and a 138% increase from 112 BTC in September 2024.
The report also confirmed the near completion of Hive Digital’s 100 MW Phase 3 Valenzuela facility ahead of the schedule. Hive’s production efficiency is superior to the challenges of the broader market as 267 BTC in September 2025 marks its highest output per month.
This powerful operational outlook and improved market sentiment position as Cryptostock to watch this week.
With momentum increasing, Hive’s stock could rise above $5 and up to $5.54.
However, if sales pressure arises, the shares could retreat to around $3.91.

Digi PowerX (DGXX)
DGXX finished Friday’s session at $2.64, noting a modest 1% increase. The modest rise reflects cautious optimism as investors digest the company’s latest operational updates.
On October 1, the company announced that the ARMS 200 (AI Ready Modular Solution) has achieved Tier III certification under the ANSI/TIA-942 standard verified by EPI. This makes Digi Power X one of a handful of global providers with certified modular AI data center platforms.
The first Tier III certified arm 200 pod is expected to be delivered to the company’s Alabama facility by November, with commissioning expected in December.
The company has also deepened its partnership with Super Micro Computer (SuperMicro) to integrate the Ai-Optimized rack scale system into the Arms platform.

Financially, Digi Power X remains properly capitalized as of September 30th, with a wealth of cash, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and deposits.
If these updates promote buy-side pressure as the week progresses, DGXX could rise to $2.95, with a potential breakout of strong volumes.
However, if sales pressure rises, the stock’s prices could fall below $2.55.

Riot Platform (Riol)
Last Friday, Riot traded up slightly, noting that it closed at $19.44 with a 1% profit. The company has also released an operational update for 2025, which could affect trading behavior this week.
According to a report released on October 3, Riot Platforms produced 445 BTC in September. This represents a 7% decrease in the month, but an 8% increase from the previous year.
The company reduced an average daily 14.8 BTC from 15.4 BTC in August. Riot sold 465 BTC that month, generating net revenue of $52.6 million with an average price of $113,043 per BTC. Despite a slight drop in power, the company’s deployed hashrate remained strong at 36.5 EH/s, an increase of 29% from the same period last year.
If news of a decline in Bitcoin production during the riots during September weakens investors’ sentiment, demand for stocks will weaken, pushing prices below $18.84 in the next few sessions.
Meanwhile, as buying activity grows as the week progresses, the stock could rise to $23.66.
