The funds were added to ARK’s innovation fund, the Next-generation Internet ETF, and the Financial Technology Innovation ETF.

Coinbase’s purchases add up to 341,186 shares purchased on Thursday and 749,205 shares purchased on Wednesday.

Betting on Coinbase gives ARK more indirect access to cryptocurrencies in addition to its big bets on companies like Tesla, which recently invested in Bitcoin and said it would accept Bitcoin as payment for its cars.
