On Monday, Ark Invest sold 44,609 shares of its spot Bitcoin exchange traded fund ARKB worth $2.8 million from its ETF Next Generation Internet (ARKW).
In total, Ark Invest has now divested $17.5 million from the Bitcoin ETF, including $7.8 million in ARKB shares sold in July.
The company’s investment strategy mandates that no single stock should exceed 10% of the ETF’s portfolio, a practice aimed at maintaining diversification within its funds.
That suggests Ark will likely continue to rebalance its asset allocation if ARKB appreciates relative to its other investments.
ARKB remains the second-largest holding in its ARKW fund, accounting for 9.93% of the fund’s total value, valued at $139.7 million as of Sept. 24, according to company disclosures. That represents nearly 5% of the spot Bitcoin ETF’s total assets under management, which amount to $2.9 billion.
The first week of July brings several important developments in the United States that could influence both traditional markets and the cryptocurrency sector.
Ric Edelman, one of the most influential voices in personal finance, has radically revised his stance on crypto allocation. After years of cautious optimism, he now believes that digital assets deserve a far larger share in investment portfolios than ever before.
In the case involving Terraform Labs and its co-founder Do Hyeong Kwon, the defense has asked the Federal Court for the Southern District of New York to extend the deadline for pretrial filings by two weeks, pushing it beyond the original date of July 1, 2025.
Coinbase has emerged as the best-performing stock in the S&P 500 for June, climbing 43% amid a surge of bullish momentum driven by regulatory clarity, product innovation, and deeper institutional interest in crypto.
