- ARK Invest increased crypto exposure by buying $39.6M in Bullish, Circle , and BitMine amid market declines. - The firm added 1.16M Bullish shares ($73.85M) and expanded Coinbase/Rollinhood holdings despite Bitcoin's 30% drop. - November saw $3.79B in crypto ETF outflows, with BlackRock's IBIT recording $523M in single-day redemptions. - ARK's "buy the dip" strategy contrasts with institutional bearishness, as Bitcoin's fourth death cross signals prolonged pessimism.

ARK Invest Increases Crypto Holdings Despite Market Turbulence

Cathie Wood's

Invest has significantly boosted its investments in companies tied to cryptocurrency, acquiring $39.6 million worth of Bullish (BLSH), Circle Internet Group (CRCL), and BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) on November 20, 2025, even as the crypto market continued its decline . The company purchased 463,598 shares of Bullish valued at $16.9 million, 216,019 shares for $15.1 million, and 260,651 shares of BitMine at $7.6 million, . This follows a $10.2 million acquisition of Bullish shares on November 19, made during a steep drop that pushed the stock .

ARK has repeatedly adopted a "buy the dip" approach as crypto-related stocks come under pressure. The firm has also grown its positions in

(COIN) and (HOOD), purchasing $10.1 million in Coinbase shares on November 21 and $16.2 million in Robinhood shares over three straight days earlier in August . The ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) now owns more than 1.16 million Bullish shares, with a total value of roughly $73.85 million .

These recent investments by ARK Invest indicate a strengthening belief in the future of crypto infrastructure.

These acquisitions come as the broader crypto market faces a downturn, with (BTC) dropping nearly 30% from its October high and U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs experiencing unprecedented outflows. BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) alone saw $523 million withdrawn on November 19, marking its largest single-day outflow since launching in January 2024 . Total ETF outflows for November have exceeded $3.79 billion, putting the month on pace to be the worst since 2022 .

Analysts attribute the selloff to several causes, such as negative technical indicators, diminishing expectations for Federal Reserve rate reductions, and increased hedging by institutional investors. Bitcoin's fourth "death cross" in 2025—a technical pattern where short-term averages fall below long-term ones—has further fueled negative sentiment

. At the same time, "smart money" traders have added $5.7 million in short positions within 24 hours, reflecting a pessimistic market view .

Despite the ongoing volatility, ARK Invest continues to express optimism about the long-term outlook for crypto. The firm's latest acquisitions show faith in the durability of crypto infrastructure companies, even as overall market confidence falters. Bullish, which owns CoinDesk, reported a net profit of $108.3 million in Q3 2025, a dramatic improvement from a $116.4 million loss in the same period last year

. Circle, another company targeted by ARK, saw its stock fall nearly 26% over five sessions, even after gaining regulatory approval for U.S. spot trading .

The differing approaches of ARK Invest and leading ETF managers underscore contrasting perspectives on the direction of the crypto market. While ARK is investing in what it sees as undervalued stocks, BlackRock and others are seeing outflows as investors move toward other assets.

(SOL) and ETFs have attracted $300.46 million and $410 million in new investments, respectively, as market participants look for exposure to smaller cryptocurrencies .

ARK's recent activity highlights its contrarian stance in the crypto sector, taking advantage of market swings to acquire shares at what it considers bargain prices. However, the ultimate outcome for the firm will depend on whether the market recovers or continues to decline for an extended period.
