Based on 379 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
➡️
No change last quarter
The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
379 hedge funds hold RIOT right now — the highest count in 3.0 years. When ownership is this concentrated, any bad news can trigger a chain reaction: one big fund sells, others follow. This is a classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
📶
Steady growth — +20% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+64 new funds entered over the past year (+20% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 51% buying
232 buying219 selling
Last quarter: 232 funds bought or added vs 219 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-19 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 71 → 81 → 105 → 86. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -0%, value -88%
Last quarter: funds added -0% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -88%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📈

New funds entering each quarter: 71 → 81 → 105 → 86. A growing number of institutions are discovering RIOT each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.

■ 53% veterans
■ 11% 1-2yr
■ 36% new
