The AI's read

Bitcoin ripped past $72,000 and Riot jumped alongside it. Riot acts like a high-beta proxy to Bitcoin and the Q2 release flagged big AI hosting deals. The market already gave Riot a ~4.6% pop and RSI is 60, so upside exists but the move isn't huge. Volume is elevated but this is a sector-led lift, not a clear idiosyncratic re-rating. Macro is in a downtrend so crypto rallies can be fragile. We lean neutral: bullish signal exists, but not enough unique, high-conviction edge to upgrade here.
