BTCS shares surge 19.47% after-hours amid major hedge fund buying and HC Wainwright's "Buy" rating.

BTCS surged 19.47% in after-hours trading following a significant influx of institutional buying and a bullish analyst rating. Major hedge funds, including Vanguard Group, BlackRock, and Jane Street Group, substantially increased their holdings in Q3 2025, collectively adding millions of dollars worth of shares. This institutional activity, coupled with HC Wainwright & Co.’s recent "Buy" rating, signaled strong confidence in the stock’s prospects. While insider sales by executives like the CEO and COO were noted, the overwhelming institutional demand and positive analyst sentiment outweighed those bearish signals, driving the sharp after-hours rally.
