Crypto equities and mining shares rise in pre-market trade as Bitcoin breaks out.

Bitcoin extended its advance on Monday, breaking above $92,000 and lifting crypto-linked equities, miners, and broader technology stocks in pre-market trading.

The largest cryptocurrency by market value was trading near $92,757 after briefly touching $93,000 during the Asian session. The move supported gains in bitcoin-related equities and technology stock futures, including Invesco’s QQQ.

Strategy (MSTR) climbed 3.5% to around $163 per share ahead of an anticipated announcement of another bitcoin purchase later in the day. The company’s perpetual preferred equity, STRC, moved closer to par at $100 after its dividend rate was raised to 11%. Strive (ASST), another bitcoin treasury firm, surged 12%, nearing the $1 mark.

Shares of AI-focused bitcoin miners continued to build on last week’s strength. Cipher Mining (CIFR) and IREN (IREN) were up more than 2% in pre-market trading after rallying as much as 10% and 13%, respectively, on Friday, pushing their shares to roughly $17 and $44. Hive Digital (HIVE) gained 6% to about $3.

MARA Holdings (MARA) rose 3.5% to above $10 per share, while fellow miners Riot Platforms (RIOT) and CleanSpark (CLSK) were each higher by around 3%.

Elsewhere, metals extended their rally following developments tied to Venezuela and the U.S., with gold climbing about 2% and silver advancing roughly 4%. The U.S. dollar index was also slightly firmer, edging toward the 99 level.
