Ark Investments made a similar investment in Coinbase two weeks before. Cathie Wood’s firm has been confidently buying the COIN stock despite the 40% from its highs of $420.
Market expert The Great Mattsby noted that the Coinbase (COIN) stock is consolidating between its 50-week and 100-week moving averages over the past month. The price action remains uncertain in the absence of a clear directional bias.
For those predicting a $COIN price collapse into the low $200s, that’s just personal bias speaking.
Objectively, the stock has been consolidating between the 50-week and 100-week moving averages for the past month. There’s no clear directional bias until one of those levels… pic.twitter.com/fcqNiwfeCM

The analyst added that despite the range-bound trading, the broader structure continues to form higher highs and higher lows. This shows that the COIN stock has a greater chance of holding support around $250, and could reverse from here.
Buying Bullish (BLSH), Circle (CRCL), and BitMine (BMNR) Stocks
During Monday’s purchase of crypto stocks, Ark Invest spent a total of $59.3million. Apart from Coinbase, the firm also purchased roughly $5.2 million of Bullish (BLSH), and around $10.8 million of Circle Internet Group (CRCL).
The Cathie Wood firm also added about $17 million in Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) and approximately $9.9 million in CoreWeave (CRWV).
As said, the purchase from Cathie Wood came during the broader crypto stocks correction on Dec. 15. On the day, Bitmine fell more than 11%, Circle dropped nearly 10%, CoreWeave slid close to 8%, Coinbase declined over 6%, and Bullish extended its ongoing downturn.
Crypto stocks have been a significant part of Ark Invest’s portfolio. The firm holds roughly $609 million in Coinbase, $323 million in Circle Internet Group, $275 million in Bitmine Immersion Technologies, $194 million in Bullish, and $140 million in CoreWeave.
