Both purchases came as the stocks declined alongside Bitcoin and as expectations for U.S. crypto legislation softened.<\/p>\n<p>On the sell side, Ark offloaded shares of Bitmine (BMNR), Bullish (BLSH), and Block, companies it had aggressively accumulated during earlier drawdowns.<\/p>\n<p>The firm had previously invested roughly $16.8M into Bullish and about $7.6M into Bitmine during late 2025, leaving substantial room to reduce exposure without exiting the thesis.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, Ark had also deployed approximately $38.7M into Coinbase, Bitmine, Circle, and Bullish during a prior sharp crypto equity sell-off.<\/p>\n<p>Block deserves a separate read. Its revenue spans payments, merchant services, and Bitcoin products; it is not a pure-play crypto name.<\/p>\n<p>Selling Block alongside Bullish and Bitmine therefore points to a broader reduction in high-volatility crypto equity risk rather than a targeted exit from digital assets specifically.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-360082 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1822\" height=\"1174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24.png 1822w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24-300x193.png 300w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24-1024x660.png 1024w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24-768x495.png 768w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24-1536x990.png 1536w, https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Screenshot-2026-07-31-at-14.30.24-50x32.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1822px) 100vw, 1822px\"><\/p>\n<p>(<a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/uk.finance.yahoo.com\/quote\/ARKK\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">SOURCE: Yahoo Finance<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/ark-invest-coinbase-circle-rotation\/#\" class=\"sc-button sc-button-green sc-button-medium\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span>Sign up to Kalshi Today and Trade the Hottest Markets While Claiming Your FREE $25<\/span><\/a>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why Coinbase and Circle Are the Conviction Plays<\/h2>\n<p>Continued buying into weakness on both COIN and CRCL signals that Ark views these as higher-conviction holdings than the names it trimmed.<\/p>\n<p>Falling digital asset prices have weighed on exchange revenues and crypto-related valuations, while Circle\u2019s outlook hinges on stablecoin adoption and regulatory clarity rather than crypto price swings alone.<\/p>\n<p>Ark\u2019s willingness to absorb short-term losses on both positions, even as they likely sit below its average purchase price, aligns with its long-term growth thesis on stablecoin infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>The pattern mirrors an earlier session where Ark sold about $8.9M worth of Block, Bullish, and Robinhood while purchasing roughly $12.5M of SpaceX and Bitmine,\u00a0consistent capital reallocation toward higher-conviction ideas.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the first time Ark has shown it will act quickly when conditions deteriorate.

If Bitmine selling continues across multiple sessions without offsetting purchases, it would suggest a more meaningful reduction in risk appetite toward exchanges and stablecoin infrastructure. If Ark resumes buying BMNR on further weakness, the recent sales will read as routine position management.<\/p>\n<p>External conditions will drive both outcomes.
