Ark Invest reshaped its technology and digital-asset exposure on Monday, adding to positions in Block Inc., Securitize and a Solana staking ETF while trimming selected software, gaming and semiconductor names.
The largest crypto-related equity purchase was Block. Ark added 182,899 shares through ARK Innovation ETF and 8,772 shares through the Ark Blockchain & Fintech Innovation ETF, totaling 191,671 shares valued near $15.4 million after Block shares closed at $80.20. The fintech company had fallen about 3% in recent trading, and Ark had already deployed roughly $21 million into Block last week after a 6% post-earnings drop. Block remains the second-largest holding in ARKF with a 6.47% weight, and Ark views it as exposure to payments and Bitcoin through Cash App, balance-sheet holdings, Lightning tools and mining hardware. The company is up nearly 50% over six months and has raised its full-year profit forecast to $12.51 billion, representing an expected 21% annual growth.
Ark also bought 189,796 shares of Securitize, worth about $1.02 million after the tokenization firm fell 3.9% to $5.39. Securitize had dropped about 20% the prior week after its first post-IPO earnings report: Q2 revenue was $14.4 million, down 5% year over year and below the $20.6 million expectation, with a net loss of $21.7 million, or $2.37 per share. Ark's ARKF purchase represented about 0.13% of the fund, adding to the firm's theme of real-world asset tokenization.
On the digital-asset side, Ark added 7,115 shares of the 3iQ Solana Staking ETF across ARKW and ARKF, providing exposure to Solana and staking rewards. The firm also continued buying Nvidia, adding 101,356 shares across five ETFs, while reducing AMD across four funds. Among notable sales, Ark sold 105,530 Shopify shares, 22,023 Palantir shares and 592,227 Roblox shares, alongside smaller biotechnology and genomics sales.
Daily trade disclosures do not include Ark's investment rationale, but the moves show the firm maintaining active exposure to digital assets, tokenization and AI while rotating away from selected consumer internet, software and semiconductor holdings.
