Moreover, this strategic acquisition looks like a complete reversal of Ark Invest’s recent trend of dumping the Coinbase stocks. On Monday, July 28, ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW) sold 18,204 shares of COIN (equivalent to about $7 million based on the day’s closing price of $379.49).
Ark Invest also increased its holdings of BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), acquiring 540,712 shares (worth about $17 million) across the aforementioned three funds on the same day. This purchase came on the back of BMNR’s price decline of over 8% to close at $31.68.
More notably, Ark Invest increased its position in the BitMine company through an estimated $182 million stock purchase in the previous week. This increased interest from Ark Invest comes amidst BitMine’s strong rotation into Ether, becoming the largest ETH treasury firm with 625,000 tokens in holdings.
