Foolish Take
Riot Platforms is no longer a pure beta trade on bitcoin prices. The company just delivered a blowout quarter, posting $180.2 million in revenue, $104.5 million in net income, and nearly $200 million in adjusted EBITDA, helped by higher bitcoin prices and expanding infrastructure operations. On paper, this looks like the kind of operating leverage long-term investors wait years to see.
But portfolio construction matters. For 13D Management, Riot had grown into a mid-single-digit position at a moment when the stock’s risk profile was quietly changing. Mining economics are tightening, hash rate competition is rising, and Riot’s strategy is increasingly tied to capital-intensive data center development rather than pure mining upside. That shift may ultimately create more durable value, but it also introduces longer timelines and execution risk. Plus, shares were up as much as nearly 90% year to date through last quarter, so the sizable run might've given some reason to lock in gains.
Ultimately, selling after a solid year suggests discipline, not panic. Riot’s shares are now up roughly in line with the market, not screaming cheap nor obviously stretched.
