Cathie Wood Dumps $1.8 Million In Coinbase Stock As Bitcoin Nears $110K All-Time High

On Monday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made a notable move by selling shares of Coinbase Global Inc. COIN across its ETFs. This decision comes as Coinbase has been riding a wave of optimism in the cryptocurrency market, fueled by Bitcoin’s BTC/USD ascent and Coinbase’s recent inclusion in the S&P 500.

The Coinbase Trade

Ark Invest’s decision to sell Coinbase shares on Monday involved two of its ETFs: Ark Fintech Innovation ETF ARKF and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF ARKW. The ARKF fund offloaded 6,404 shares, while ARKW sold 730 shares. On Monday, COIN ended the day higher by 2.1% at $256.63. The Ark transactions were valued at $1.83 million.

This move comes in the wake of Coinbase’s impressive performance, which saw its stock soar nearly 30% in the past month. The surge was driven by the company’s historic inclusion in the S&P 500 and renewed optimism in the cryptocurrency sector.

Coinbase’s recent rally has been fueled by Bitcoin’s impressive surge past the $100,000 mark. The cryptocurrency reached an all-time high of $111,970.17 on May 23. In the past 24 hours, BTC gained nearly 4% to trade at $109,908.99 — 1.9% below its record high.

This rally has sparked optimism among investors, leading to increased interest in companies like Coinbase, which have been riding the crypto wave. However, questions remain about whether these companies can maintain their momentum in the face of potential market volatility.
