Ark Invest Buys $15 Million of Block Shares on the Dip

Ark Invest made a fresh splash in traditional markets this week. The prominent investment firm purchased $15 million worth of Block Inc shares after the stock dropped by 3 percent. Block is widely known for its heavy involvement in the Bitcoin ecosystem and digital payments.

The firm also grabbed $1 million worth of shares in Securitize. That particular stock fell by over 20 percent last week following a disappointing second quarter earnings report. Ark Invest is clearly treating the recent price weakness as a buying opportunity for these tech and crypto adjacent assets.
