Traders keep a close eye on these three surprising crypto stocks as markets react to rising global tensions and trade uncertainty after Trump’s announcement on China

After a significant $20 billion market selloff last week, the cryptocurrency sector is showing early signs of recovery. Several US-listed crypto-related stocks are gaining investor attention due to strategic developments and institutional interest. Global trade tensions between the US and China triggered a massive selloff in the cryptocurrency market, erasing over $20 billion in value and sending crypto-related stocks tumbling.

According to the Bein Crypto website, these three US-listed crypto stocks are gaining attention this week as recent industry developments set the stage for possible gains.

Galaxy Digital Inc (GLXY)

Galaxy Digital (GLXY) ended at $39.38, down 7 percent for the day, reflecting the broader downturn in the crypto market as massive liquidations pressured crypto-linked stocks.

The recent dip comes when Galaxy just secured a $460 million strategic investment from a leading global asset manager, underscoring strong institutional confidence in its long-term outlook.

The deal involves the purchase of 9,027,778 shares from Galaxy and 3,750,000 shares from executives, including Founder and CEO Mike Novogratz, at $36 per share. In pre-market trading today, GLXY was priced at $40.60. Analysts say that if investor optimism persists, the stock could rise toward $44.33 later this week. If market sentiment falters and selling pressure intensifies, GLXY’s share price could fall below $36.60.

LQWD Technologies Corp (LQWD)

LQWD Technologies’ shares fell 5 percent last Friday, as forced selling and cautious investor positioning overshadowed the company’s recent operational gains. LQWD Technologies recently completed a 60-day Lightning Network yield test, deploying over 47.1 BTC across its global infrastructure and achieving a weighted annualized yield (APR) of 8.9 percent.

CEO Shone Anstey said the company’s new yield strategy is performing strongly, noting that as Bitcoin usage grows, the yield potential expands proportionally. If the company’s momentum and investor sentiment strengthen, the stock could rebound toward $3.29 as buying activity builds.

On the other hand, if the broader crypto downturn intensifies, LQWD’s stock could slide further, potentially testing support around $0.91.

Soluna Holdings, Inc. (SLNH)

Soluna Holdings (SLNH) ended last Friday at $2.41, down 6 percent. Despite the drop, the stock is drawing attention after a major partnership that could boost investor sentiment and price momentum this week. The Albany-based green data center developer announced a new hosting agreement with KULR Technology Group, a company specializing in Bitcoin treasury management.

Soluna will oversee roughly 3.3 MW of Bitcoin mining capacity for KULR at its Project Sophie facility in Kentucky. The partnership marks Soluna’s first collaboration with a Bitcoin treasury-focused firm, highlighting an expansion of its client base beyond traditional miners and hyperscalers. In the pre-market trading arena, SLNH shares were up at $2.54, showing early signs of renewed investor interest.

If the momentum carries through the week, SLNH could surpass resistance at $2.58 and climb toward $3.10.However, if selling pressure intensifies, the share price could fall toward $2.06, testing its lower support range.
