12 Best Cryptocurrency Stocks To Buy According to Hedge Funds

Published on December 8, 2023 at 3:54 am by Ramish Cheema in Hedge Funds, News

In this piece, we will take a look at the 12 best cryptocurrency stocks to buy according to hedge funds. If you want to skip our overview of the explosive cryptocurrency sector that continues to surprise, then you can skip ahead to 5 Best Cryptocurrency Stocks To Buy According To Hedge Funds.

2023 has been the year of artificial intelligence. It started with doom and gloom all around as investors were reeling from high interest rates and predictions of a recession. This environment does not bode well for high growth areas such as cryptocurrency, and naturally, these stocks were poor performers. In fact, 2022 was a bloodbath for the cryptocurrency industry and stocks, as high interest rates incentivized capital to flow into stable savings accounts and the money market, which left cryptocurrency in the dust.

For instance, the price of Bitcoin which is the world’s premier cryptocurrency and a widely known benchmark for the sector, tanked to below $16,500 in November 2022. This time period was one of the worst for growth assets, as back then the Federal Reserve was pumping up interest rates by massive 75 point hikes a piece. At the same time, just as crypto was struggling to find its footing, calamity hit the cryptocurrency sector as cryptocurrency exchange FTX declared bankruptcy. While declaring bankruptcy itself is not particularly controversial as several firms go through the process, FTX’s liquidation was far from ordinary.

This is because at the heart of the FTX saga was the question of legitimacy that cryptocurrency critics have continued to worry about. Since Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies are not backed by any assets, their value is thought to be purely speculative and determined by market sentiment alone. In the case of FTX, it was revealed that the firm funneled customer deposits into speculative investments – including its own token – and when these investments crashed, it lost customer money. A fraud of epic proportions, it saw FTX’s founder Sam Bankman-Fried face trial for exactly a year before being convicted on all seven counts that prosecutors had brought against him.

However, while FTX is a thing of the past, Bitcoin surely isn’t. After dropping to multi-year lows in 2022, the world’s favorite cryptocurrency is basking in the evolving financial markets environment of 2023. Year to date, Bitcoin has gained a respectable 151% on the market, and its current price of ~$42,000 is the highest level at which it has been in 2023. There are several reasons behind this surge. One of these is the expected easing in financial conditions that has also fueled the flagship S&P 500 stock index and the NASDAQ indexes in November. Lower interest rates naturally fuel riskier assets as investors want alternative avenues for a return, and Bitcoin is perhaps the riskiest of all assets.

Apart from the financial conditions, the nature of Bitcoin’s price is also at play these days, Since, unlike say for shares of the Cupertino, California technology giant Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) reflect Apple’s financial heft and future market potential, Bitcoin’s price is a reflection of market sentiment, it appreciates when investors are optimistic. These indicators of optimism primarily revolve around the growing adoption and removal of regulatory constraints surrounding Bitcoin. Now, one of the biggest tailwinds for Bitcoin’s price is a potential approval of an exchange traded fund (ETF) that would improve investor access to the cryptocurrency by allowing stock market participants to also trade in Bitcoin. The potential for this fund is no laughing matter since estimates show that should such a fund be approved by the S.E.C., then a whopping $3 billion could flow into it on the first day and up to $55 billion over the next five years.

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Published on June 23, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

  • It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
  • It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
  • It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

  • The AI infrastructure supercycle
  • The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
  • A surge in U.S. LNG exports
  • And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.

Dive into the AI gold rush and watch your portfolio soar alongside the brightest minds of our generation.

This isn’t just about making money – it’s about being part of the future.
