Forget MSTR— This Bitcoin Mining Stock Is Ready For A Breakout As Momentum Score Spikes

Investors tracking the crypto sector often default to Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR), but a smaller player, BTCS Inc. (NASDAQ:BTCS), is flashing a powerful technical signal that suggests a potential breakout.

Momentum Surge Signals Strength

According to Benzinga Edge’s Stock Ranking data, BTCS has seen a massive surge in relative strength, with its momentum score jumping from 30.63 to 71.38 in just one week.

Momentum score, which ranks a stock's price movement and volatility against peers, has shifted BTCS from the bottom third of the market into the top tier. A move of over 40 points in a single week is a significant volatility event, often indicating a rapid shift in investor sentiment.

While the stock's short-term and medium-term price trends remain under pressure, the long-term trend indicator remains positive.

This price action is supported by elite underlying fundamentals. BTCS currently holds a growth score of 99.74. This metric, which evaluates historical expansion in earnings and revenue, places BTCS in the top 1% of all rated stocks for growth performance, confirming that the price movement is backed by tangible business expansion.

Strategic ETH Focus

The renewed interest follows BTCS’s aggressive Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH)Treasury strategy.

The company recently implemented a “Bividend” (dividend paid in ETH) and loyalty payments designed to reward long-term holders and reduce the shares available to short sellers.

With plans to raise $225 million throughout 2025 to acquire more Ethereum, this momentum spike suggests the market may be re-rating the stock’s aggressive asset accumulation strategy.
