In this article, we will take a look at some of the best get rich quick stocks to buy now.
Everyone’s looking for that one big break, whether in their jobs or the stock market. However, some people actually wonder: Is the game-changer idea applicable to all, or do some people just get lucky? Well, there’s no single answer.
In this article, we discuss some of the stocks that have breakout potential. These stocks can make even an ordinary investor extraordinary, provided that it’s a bet worth making. The term “get-rich stocks” typically implies highly volatile stocks that are usually cheap.
As Cathie Wood once said,
“Volatility is the price you pay for extraordinary returns.”
We have often heard that high rewards come with high risks, and when fluctuations hit the market, it’s time to be prepared for volatility and not panic when the stock price drops temporarily. There’s no science behind it, just the general belief that if you want to chase big gains, you have to brace yourself for the bumpy ride.

10. Bit Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BTBT)
Upside potential as of July 8, 2025: 57.75%
Beta (5Y Monthly): 5.36
Earlier last week, Bit Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BTBT) announced that the underwriters of its previous public offering have proceeded to acquire an additional 11.25 million ordinary shares, worth around $21.4 million.
The option was fully exercised, with a total of 86.25 million shares sold during the public offering. After accounting for underwriting discounts and estimated expenses, Bit Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BTBT) generated roughly $162.9 million in net proceeds. The timing of this capital raise is quite noteworthy, as the company plans to purchase Ethereum. A testament to the company’s growth efforts is the stock’s 66.98% rise in the past five days.
The company is parting ways with Bitcoin and shifting its focus towards high-margin ETH staking and HPC services. The reason why BTBT is considered a “get-rich stock” is that it is now closely tied to ETH price volatility, and with just one jump, Bit Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BTBT) will likely move past its rough days.
Bit Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BTBT) is a New York-based bitcoin mining business that was incorporated in 2015. The company designs, develops, and manages high-performance computing (HPC) data centers offering not only hosting and colocation services but also cloud-based HPC graphics processing units for AI and machine learning developers.
