We like to keep it light in our intros, but today, we’re taking a brief break from the levity to reflect on the devastating events of 24 years ago.

We all remember where we were on September 11, 2001. Let us also forever remember those lives lost in the tragic attacks, and in the heroic acts that followed.

Never forget.

Finally, read to the end for the quote hinting at a record-breaking IPO season.

Bitcoin $BTC.X ( ▲ 1.71% ) has hovered above $100,000 for months, a historic first. ETFs tied to the cryptocurrency have logged steady inflows, and Wolfe Research says the flagship coin could retest its $124.5K peak.

Still, analyst Read Harvey noted that attention has shifted to other coins and, increasingly, to crypto stocks. Recently, Harvey wrote that equities tied to the sector “have actually outperformed since April.”

While bitcoin has surged more than 33% over that period, Wolfe highlighted sharper moves in crypto-linked names. The firm believes investors may find more near-term opportunities outside the token itself.

Wolfe pointed to three companies as “intriguing setups”: digital asset platform Bit Digital $BTDR ( ▲ 3.45% ), mega-exchange Coinbase $COIN ( ▲ 2.73% ), and bitcoin mining firm Terawulf $WULF ( ▲ 0.85% ). Since April, Bit Digital is up about 37%, Coinbase has popped 77%, and Terawulf has surged a whopping 257%.

Coinbase, the biggest name of the bunch, has drawn ample analyst attention. The stock rallied after joining the S&P 500 in May and has since traded around $300. Wolfe says a breakout above its 50-day moving average near $340 could signal further upside.

Harvey added that he “would not be taking off any crypto equity exposure in favor of bitcoin” at this point.

Crypto stocks’ outperformance comes as other blockchain ecosystems such as Ethereum $ETH.X ( ▲ 4.0% ) and Solana $SOL.X ( ▲ 4.11% ) gain traction. Wolfe says that while bitcoin has reclaimed some leadership recently, whether it can sustain that role remains uncertain.

For now, Harvey’s team views crypto equities as better positioned than bitcoin itself. As with the sector overall, though, the ride is likely to stay volatile — and investor conviction will be tested each time momentum shifts.

Blackstone’s IPO pipeline is stuffed.

If even a fraction of it converts, 2026 could shatter issuance records. But is that really such a good thing?

Historically, a slew of new issuances has preceded several sharp downturns, including the 1929 crash and the dotcom bubble burst.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. But with AI-driven valuations already drawing side-eyes, investors might be wise to keep any IPO optimism sufficiently cautious…
