Ark Invest Adds Crypto Stocks in Downturn

Ark Invest buys crypto-linked stocks

Catenaa, Sunday, February 08, 2026-Ark Invest increased holdings in multiple crypto-linked stocks, including Bitmine, Circle, and Bullish, as the broader cryptocurrency market continues to decline.

According to a Tuesday trade filing, Ark purchased $3.25 million in Ethereum treasury firm Bitmine, $3.46 million in Bullish exchange shares, and $2.4 million in stablecoin issuer Circle.

Smaller additions included $1.77 million in Block Inc. and $630,606 in Coinbase shares. The moves follow similar purchases Monday aimed at boosting exposure to discounted crypto-related equities.

Ark CEO Cathie Wood recently highlighted potential indicators for bitcoin’s next bull run, citing a gold price rally as a leading signal. She noted that gold’s performance has historically preceded major bitcoin advances in the last two significant market cycles.

Wood also referenced Truflation data showing U.S. consumer price inflation at 0.86% year-over-year, significantly below the 2-3% range seen over the past two years. She suggested that easing inflation could further support crypto market momentum.

The purchases reflect Ark’s continued confidence in the long-term potential of digital asset-related firms despite short-term market volatility, extending the firm’s strategy of acquiring undervalued positions in the sector.
