US spot Bitcoin ETFs ended Q1 in the red, with about $500 million of net outflows despite March inflows, as sentiment remained weak amid geopolitical tensions.

Bitfarms said it was impacted by a decline in Bitcoin prices last year. The company is now five months into its pivot from Bitcoin mining to HPC and AI. Bitfarms (BITF) shares climbed 6.6% on Tuesday despite reporting a widened $284.5 million net loss for 2025, driven by a decline in Bitcoin prices and a high cost of revenue, with the company advancing its pivot to AI and high-performance computing.  The company’s full-year results statement on Tuesday showed a 72% year-on-year increase in revenue to $229 million. This was outweighed by $248 million in cost of revenue, leading to a gross loss.  General and administrative expenses also increased year over year, while the change in fair value of digital assets led to a $50.5 million loss in 2025 compared with a gain of $26 million in 2024. This was partially offset by a $28.2 million realized gain on the sale of digital assets.  Read more
