Jack Dorsey, the CEO of Square and Twitter, made an announcement about starting a new business focused on DeFi services on Friday.
Following the announcement, NY-based ARK Investment’s daily holding files revealed that the company has purchased a total of 225,937 shares.
The ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) purchased a total of 179,664 shares while the ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW) made an additional purchase of 46,273 shares.
As of writing, ARKK currently holds over 4.5 million shares and ARKW over 1.1 million shares.
