In March, funds managed by ARK Invest purchased Coinbase and Block securities for a total of $12.6 million.

Kathy Wood’s firm resumed buying Coinbase shares in October 2022 after a pause of four months. She consistently increased her positions in securities and only in March 2023 got rid of the package for $13.5 million.

At the end of April, the funds bought $8.6 million worth of trading platform securities. The transaction occurred on the same day that Coinbase filed a legal complaint against the SEC.

Recall that in May, structures controlled by ARK Invest invested $8.3 million and $7.5 million in the crypto exchange.
