U.S. politician’s super suspicious Bitcoin stock trade just earned 200% return

United State Representative Cleo Fields of Louisiana is in the spotlight after a July stock trade in Bitcoin ( BTC ) miner IREN Limited (NASDAQ: IREN ) turned into one of his most lucrative moves. Filings indicate that on July 10, 2025, Fields purchased between $15,001 and $50,000 worth of IREN shares. The transaction, disclosed in early August, has coincided with a 196% surge in IREN’s stock over roughly three months. IREN one-week stock price chart.

For instance, among his most recent congress trades, in the days leading up to Oracle’s (NYSE: ORCL ) emergence as a key partner in the U.S. acquisition of TikTok, Fields purchased between $80,000 and $200,000 worth of Oracle stock across three trades on September 17, 18, and 23.

However, Fields has denied any wrongdoing in his stock trades. IREN’s bullish fundamentals Meanwhile, several fundamental factors have contributed to the stocks’ recent rally. Notably, IREN, formerly known as Iris Energy, has rapidly expanded its Bitcoin mining capacity, reaching 50 exahashes per second earlier this year. The company has emphasized efficiency, claiming one of the lowest production costs in the industry by leveraging renewable energy for its data centers. As Bitcoin’s price has strengthened throughout 2025, IREN’s mining margins have widened significantly. What truly ignited investor enthusiasm, however, was IREN’s pivot into artificial intelligence. Building on its data center footprint, the company has begun deploying high-end Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA ) GPUs, including the latest H100 and Blackwell series chips, to power cloud infrastructure for AI workloads. In August, IREN secured “preferred partner” status with the American chipmaker, a designation that provided both credibility and priority access to scarce hardware. This news, combined with strong quarterly earnings showing a 228% jump in revenue and a return to profitability, has made IREN one of the market’s hottest dual plays in crypto and AI.
