Surge in Coinbase Shares Following Key Partnerships

Following the formal disclosure of agreements with BlackRock and CBOE, shares in the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase experienced a substantial surge. The shares, which were previously trading at around $75-76, saw an increase of over 10%, nearing the $90 mark.

ARK Invest Reports Significant Sale of COIN Shares

ARK Invest, a major investor in Coinbase, reported to the SEC a significant sale of COIN shares. The sale involved 135,152 shares from one of the company’s largest ETFs, the ARK Innovation ETF. The total value of the shares sold was approximately $12 million. This is not the first time ARK Invest has made such a move.

Following the lawsuit, Coinbase shares fell sharply, prompting ARK to buy more shares at the lower price.

It wasn’t just ARK Invest that made significant sales of Coinbase shares. Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase, along with other top executives, also sold approximately $7 million worth of shares last week.
