Founded in 2012, Coinbase is the leading cryptocurrency exchange platform in the United States. The company intends to be the safe and regulation-compliant point of entry for retail investors and institutions into the cryptocurrency economy. Users can establish an account directly with the firm, instead of using an intermediary, and many choose to allow Coinbase to act as a custodian for their cryptocurrency, giving the company breadth beyond that of a traditional financial exchange. While the company still generates the majority of its revenue from transaction fees charged to its retail customers, Coinbase uses internal investment and acquisitions to expand into adjacent businesses, such as prime brokerage and data analytics.

This UnitedHealth Group Analyst Is No Longer Bullish; Here Are Top 5 Downgrades For Wednesday

Days after GameStop (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) revealed that it purchased 4,710 Bitcoins for its corporate treasury, Bitwise Asset Management rolled out an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">options-only fund</a> aimed at transforming the wild volatility of the meme stock into a reliable income stream—without actually owning any shares.
As its prospectus outlines, the Bitwise GME Option Income Strategy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IGME#NYSE">IGME</a>) writes both call and put options on GameStop to capture option premiums. Its goal is to distribute those earnings to shareholders every month. 
This structure helps avoid directional risk while still allowing for exposure to the sharp price fluctuations that have turned GME into a favorite among retail traders.
IGME has an expense ratio of 0.98%, with the first distribution set for July 24.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Growing Suite Of Option-Based Funds </h2>
IGME marks Bitwise's fourth covered-call product launched in 2025, following similar offerings linked to MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), Coinbase (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), and others. 
The firm also manages the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BITB#NYSE">BITB</a>) and the Bitwise Ethereum ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETHW#NYSE">ETHW</a>), solidifying its status as a pioneer in crypto-related ETFs.
And timing matters. GameStop's choice to add bitcoin to its balance sheet introduces a new crypto angle to a stock already famous for its dramatic price swings driven by retail sentiment. By combining an options income strategy with this narrative, Bitwise places IGME at the crossroads of meme-stock volatility and corporate adoption of digital assets, an area that few other funds are currently exploring.
Analysts believe that Bitwise's latest offering could attract investors looking for a way to tap into GameStop's volatility and its crypto shift, all while preferring a risk-managed, income-focused approach.

William Blair Initiates Coverage On Coinbase Global with Outperform Rating

Analysts at Bernstein say that Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) is emerging as the foundational layer for real-world financial applications such as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44456074/tokenization-will-merge-crypto-and-equities-bernstein">stablecoins and tokenization</a> and developments that signal a turning point for public blockchain utility and value.
In their latest note, Bernstein analysts wrote, "Stablecoins and tokenisation driven financial applications are being built on public blockchain/crypto networks such as Ethereum."
They argue that while Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) narrative remains rooted in store-of-value use cases, Ethereum's strength lies in enabling decentralized financial infrastructure at scale.
The report highlights how this utility is becoming more visible to institutional investors. While <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-spot-bitcoin-etfs">Bitcoin ETFs</a> have gathered over $120 billion in assets under management, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-ethereum-etf">Ethereum ETFs</a>, though smaller in comparison, have started to gain momentum with $815 million in inflows over the past 20 days and total year-to-date net inflows turning positive at $658 million.
Bernstein analysts describe this moment as "the stage where crypto takes a leap from speculative token markets to blockchain-driven financial innovation." 
Ethereum, they argue, is no longer just a decentralized computer in theory, but one powering open financial rails that integrate stablecoins, tokenized assets, and modern fintech use cases.

They point to active development by major players such as Visa (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>), MasterCard (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>), and Stripe in stablecoin infrastructure, as well as efforts by Robinhood (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) and Coinbase (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) to build tokenized equity platforms and stablecoin-based payment systems, all using public crypto rails like Ethereum.
Addressing a common investor refrain that &#8220;blockchain is valuable, but crypto is useless,&#8221; Bernstein counters: "These are not different things. If you believe in stablecoin based payments innovation, why is the Ethereum network that mints the stablecoins and processes stablecoin transactions, not valuable?"
The analysts argue that Ethereum is now reaching an inflection point where both its utility and its native asset's value are being recognized. 
"There is now both utility and value accrual," the note says, suggesting that institutional capital is beginning to acknowledge Ethereum&#8217;s foundational role.
Coinbase's Base network and Robinhood's tokenized asset plans are cited as further evidence that crypto-native infrastructure is becoming the backend for the next wave of financial services.

Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya admired Circle Internet Group&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRL#NYSE">CRL</a>) successful Wall Street debut on Monday, suggesting it could pave the way for more cryptocurrency companies to enter public markets.
What Happened: Palihapitiya took to X to comment on the recent public listing of the stablecoin issuing company. He highlighted Circle&#8217;s potential advantage over competitors, given its&nbsp;&#8220;head start&#8221; and the resources it managed to raise&nbsp;through its IPO.
&#8220;The IPO's success also suggests that public markets are open to new listings, especially from crypto companies, and reinforces that regulatory clarity may be the decisive factor in opening both private and public markets,&#8221; the tech investor added.
The SPAC King noted that Circle built an infrastructure for stablecoin issuance and settlement ahead of regulatory and legal clarity in the U.S., and he hoped that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45510057/senate-crypto-bill-passes-key-vote-genius-act-moves-toward-final-passage">legislation defining a framework for the space</a> would be formalized soon.

IPOs

Circle IPO Success Suggests Markets Open To New Listings, Especially From Crypto Businesses, Says SPAC King Chamath Palihapitiya

On Monday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made a notable move by selling shares of Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) across its ETFs. This decision comes as Coinbase has been riding a wave of optimism in the cryptocurrency market, fueled by Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) ascent and Coinbase&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/05/45416971/coinbase-becomes-first-pure-play-crypto-stock-in-sp-500-analyst-sees-major-institutional-upside">recent inclusion</a> in the S&amp;P 500.
The Coinbase Trade
Ark Invest&#8217;s decision to sell Coinbase shares on Monday involved two of its ETFs: Ark Fintech Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#BATS">ARKF</a>) and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#BATS">ARKW</a>). The ARKF fund offloaded 6,404 shares, while ARKW sold 730 shares. On Monday, COIN ended the day higher by 2.1% at $256.63. The Ark transactions were valued at $1.83 million.
This move comes in the wake of Coinbase&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45764843/coinbase-crushed-tesla-amazon-and-other-mag-7-peers-in-recent-rally-heres-what-drove-the-stunning-comeback">impressive performance</a>, which saw its stock soar nearly 30% in the past month. The surge was driven by the company&#8217;s historic inclusion in the S&amp;P 500 and renewed optimism in the cryptocurrency sector.
Coinbase&#8217;s recent rally has been fueled by Bitcoin&#8217;s impressive surge past the $100,000 mark. The cryptocurrency reached an all-time high of $111,970.17 on May 23. In the past 24 hours, BTC gained nearly 4% to trade at $109,908.99 — 1.9% below its record high.
This rally has sparked optimism among investors, leading to increased interest in companies like Coinbase, which have been riding the crypto wave. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45801402/bitcoins-moonshot-can-microstrategy-and-coinbase-keep-riding-the-crypto-wave">questions remain</a> about whether these companies can maintain their momentum in the face of potential market volatility.

These Are The 3 Hottest Stock Market Themes Trending Now

A sharp divide is emerging on Wall Street. Bank of America's strategist Michael Hartnett says that President Donald Trump&#8216;s economic policies are lifting capital-rich tech giants rather than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/michael-hartnett">domestically focused small caps.</a>
&#8220;It&#8217;s&nbsp;like&nbsp;the&nbsp;&#8217;80s deregulation boom and&nbsp;the&nbsp;&#8217;90s tech boom all at the same time,&#8221; the expert said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street's New Divide: &#8220;Bro Billionaires&#8221; Vs. The Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Base&#8221;</h3>
In his latest &#8220;The Flow Show,&#8221; Hartnett introduced what he calls the "bro billionaire" stock basket, an equal-weighted group including Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>), Interactive Brokers Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>), Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>), Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) and Apollo Global Management Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APO#NYSE">APO</a>).
Since the 2024 U.S. election, this basket is up 45%.
By contrast, the Russell 2000 index — which Hartnett associates with Trump's electoral "base" — has fallen 7% over the same period.
&#8220;Tariffs, tax cuts, reshoring, deregulation, but no bid for the little guys,&#8221; Hartnett said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dollar Drops Despite 5% Yields</h3>
The U.S. dollar continues to slide, down 8.9% year to date, even as 30-year Treasury yields remain near 5%. Hartnett sees this as the product of fiscal disarray, not monetary misstep.
Hartnett indicated that Trump's approach combines aggressive tax cuts with high spending, a mix that resembles both Republican and Democratic fiscal strategies.
&#8220;U.S. dollar breaking down despite 5% Treasury yields as DOGE replaced by deficits &amp; tax cuts,&#8221; he said.
&#8220;DOGE was a bust, tariffs are a bust, so only way he gets the deficit down to 3% of GDP is via max pumping GDP and hoping Bessent can sweet talk the [bond] vigilantes,&#8221; he added.
According to Hartnett a weaker dollar is bullish for gold, emerging markets, and international equities. 
Hartnett continues to back his BIG allocation—bonds, International, and Gold—a theme he&#8217;s been pushing since early spring.
 "Profits and policy keep us long weak dollar plays, gold, EM, international," Hartnett stated.
Hartnett noted that gold-related funds have attracted $75 billion in inflows year-to-date, marking the largest influx on record.

Trump's Policies Power 'Bro Billionaires' While Main Street Stocks Lag, BofA's Hartnett Says

Michael Shaulov, CEO of digital asset infrastructure provider Fireblocks, asserted that cryptocurrency has crossed the &#8220;point of no return,&#8221; with increasing acceptance and impending regulation advancing its legitimacy.
What Happened:&nbsp;In an exclusive chat with Benzinga at the recently held Consensus 2025 event, Shaulov was optimistic of the cryptocurrency sector&#8217;s future, with more individuals and institutions jumping on the bandwagon.
&#8220;I think it&#8217;s pretty clear that it&#8217;s beyond the point of no return,&#8221; Shaulov stated. &#8220;The train left the station. I think more and more people are jumping on the train&#8221;

He further said that the incoming regulation in the U.S., in whatever shape it takes, would only strengthen the reality of cryptocurrencies, offering ten times the properties, performance, speed and cost reduction compared to traditional financial systems.

Shaulov also shared findings from a recent survey that Fireblocks conducted across&nbsp;banks and payment&nbsp;companies. 
&#8220;There&#8217;s no skeptism anymore. 90% of them are either already working with stable coins or in pilots of stable coins or contemplating how they&#8217;re going to enter the space,&#8221; Shaulov revealed.
Why It Matters:&nbsp;Shaulov has been a long-standing cryptocurrency advocate. He previously referred to Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/10/35142263/exclusive-fireblocks-ceo-calls-bitcoin-an-insurance-policy-against-government-collapse">&#8220;insurance instrument&#8221;</a> against potential government system collapses.
His optimistic outlook on the sector, particularly on stablecoins, comes amid the advancement of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45510057/senate-crypto-bill-passes-key-vote-genius-act-moves-toward-final-passage" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">GENIUS Act</a>, a proposed legislation aiming to establish the first U.S. regulatory framework for issuers of stablecoins like Tether (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDT</a>) and USD Coin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDC</a>). Sen.&nbsp;Cynthia Lummis&nbsp;(R-Wyo.) expressed confidence that the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45763451/ja" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">bill would become law</a>&nbsp;by this week.
Meanwhile, stablecoin issuing company Circle Internet Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRL#NYSE">CRL</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45821941/circle-crcl-stock-surges-after-successful-ipo-debut-whats-going-on">recorded a blockbuster debut</a> last week, popping 168% on its first day. The stock opened at $69, more than double its $31 IPO price, giving the company an initial valuation of $6.9 billion.
However, former Goldman Sachs executive and Web3 entrepreneur Dom Kwok <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45830632/ex-goldman-executive-on-circles-168-ipo-spike-dont-rush-to-buy-stock-as-bankers-engineer-a-pop-cites-facebook-example">advised investors</a> not to rush and wait for the lockup period to end.

Crypto At 'Point Of No Return,' Says Fireblocks CEO And Here's Why He Is Confident About It

According to several experts in the sector, Bitcoin ETFs and cryptocurrency-related ETFs have made significant progress since launching in January 2024 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/currency-etfs/25/01/42971053/bitcoin-etfs-enter-2025-after-massive-first-year">and setting inflow records</a>.
Here's what three Bitcoin-ETF experts had to say about the sector&#8217;s growth, why people are choosing Bitcoin ETFs, what the U.S. buying Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) could mean for demand and validation, and what comes next for cryptocurrency ETFs.
Beating Expectations: The launch of Bitcoin ETFs has been an &#8220;amazing journey&#8221; that could be &#8220;just beginning,&#8221; WisdomTree Global Head of Research Chris Gannatti said at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-tme4GtysQ">Benzinga's recent ETF event.</a>
"At WisdomTree, we've been amazed to watch the appetite, the adoption," Gannatti said.
Gannatti said it's clear there was pent-up demand for Bitcoin ETFs and everyone has now seen "incredible growth."
WisdomTree was one of the first companies with a Bitcoin ETF with the WisdomTree Bitcoin Fund (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTCW#BATS">BTCW</a>).
Bitwise Asset Management Head of Research Ryan Rasmussen echoed the early success of Bitcoin ETFs with his company behind the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BITB#NYSE">BITB</a>) and several other crypto-related ETFs.
"The adoption and performance of Bitcoin ETFs since they launched in the US since last January is just incredible," Rasmussen said.
Rasmussen said Bitcoin ETFs broke the one-year record for inflows and continue to see strong demand.
"We're extremely excited about it. Just getting started."
After the launch of the initial batch of Bitcoin ETFs came other funds like the Innovator Uncapped Bitcoin 20 Floor ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QBF#BATS">QBF</a>), which offers limited downside for investors.
Innovator Director of Product Strategy Andrew Nelson said the initial growth of Bitcoin ETFs is what spurred the company launching a crypto ETF.
"There's room for everybody," Nelson said.
Nelson said Innovator's fund creates additional investment opportunities for investors and another tool in their tool kit when looking for exposure to Bitcoin.

Why Bitcoin ETFs?: When asked why there's room for Bitcoin ETFs alongside investing directly in Bitcoin, the expert panel didn't flinch.
Nelson said Bitcoin ETFs like the one from Innovator provide "unique exposure" for investors.
Summarizing his company's ETF in three sentences, he said it's, "Bitcoin, 20% max loss, and no cap."
The Innovator fund offers an uncapped upside while providing a 20% max loss each quarter for investors. Nelson said this is not something you can engineer on your own just by holding Bitcoin.
Rasmussen echoed this sentiment saying there are different things ETFs can do like derivatives and options along with getting access to "institutional grade custody" of Bitcoin.
With Bitcoin ETFs, there's less risk for asset managers than worrying about self-custody and other aspects for clients, Rasmussen added.
Countries and Companies Adding Bitcoin: Another key growth topic for Bitcoin and Bitcoin ETFs could be the stockpiling of the leading cryptocurrency by countries and companies.
Gannatti said that some see the degree of success Michael Saylor has had with Strategy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) buying Bitcoin and they want to follow it.
"People who have achieved great success get great attention," Gannatti said.
Gannatti also said the US being more crypto-friendly isn't a done deal, but things are changing.
"The current administration is pushing the ball down the field in a positive direction."
Without giving a price prediction, Gannatti said if the only goal is to get the price of Bitcoin to go up fast, the U.S. buying Bitcoin could be the quickest way.
Rasmussen highlighted the sector&#8217;s change. The fact that a person predicting some of the things that happened five years ago would have been laughed at and called crazy, he added.
"I think it's crazy that we're seeing corporations and governments buy Bitcoin, not in a bad way," Rasmussen said.
Rasmussen referenced how GameStop (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) recently bought Bitcoin. More companies are saying they're adding the cryptocurrency to hedge against national debt, inflation, and geopolitical concerns.
"I still think we're in the early stages of seeing mass adoption by governments and corporations."
Rasmussen added that, "no government wants to be the last mover when it comes to this."
Pension funds that have yet to invest in Bitcoin say they&#8217;d feel comfortable adding cryptocurrency to their portfolios if the U.S. purchases Bitcoin, the panelist added.
"I think that is one of those monumental moments,&#8221; he added.
More demand from countries and corporations could lead the price of Bitcoin higher, Nelson said.
Nelson said the idea is that high demand drives prices higher in a supply-constrained environment. The U.S. buying Bitcoin could be a positive action for the sector. Yet, Nelson added, it might not be the same initial demand that happened when Bitcoin ETFs launched.
"We think it's a positive for the space."
What's Next: Bitwise predicts Bitcoin will hit $200,000 by the end of 2025 and $1 million by 2029. Rasmussen said these are predictions and not investment advice but show confidence in the long term.
Going forward, the company is also launching more ETFs in the cryptocurrency space. This includes covered call income strategy funds around public crypto-companies like Strategy, MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MARA#NASDAQ">MARA</a>) and Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>).
"We're spending a lot of time thinking about what products do investors want access to," Rasmussen said. 
Innovator has just one current cryptocurrency ETF — QBF. However, the company is closely monitoring the space and the options market to see where the demand is, Nelson said, adding, "We're looking at Ethereum of course, because of its already approved nature.&#8221;
Innvoator also monitors Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) and XRP CRYPTO:XRP).

10 Financials Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Cathie Wood's Ark Invest made a blockbuster purchase of Circle Internet Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>) shares on Thursday, marking a significant move in the evolving digital assets landscape. The bold acquisition came as Ark simultaneously reshuffled its cryptocurrency stock portfolio, reducing exposure to other industry names. This strategic pivot follows Circle's high-profile NYSE debut and may underscore Ark's conviction in the future of stablecoins.
The Circle Trade
On Thursday, Ark Invest purchased an eye-popping 4,486,560 shares of Circle, totaling approximately $373.42 million. The transactions were made through ARK Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>), ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#BATS">ARKW</a>), and Ark Fintech Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#BATS">ARKF</a>). For the day, Circle shares closed at $83.23, rising a whopping 168.48%. The shares rose another 5.4% in the after-hours trading to $87.71.
This move comes on the heels of Circle's impressive NYSE debut, where the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45800399/circle-surges-to-69-in-nyse-debut-raising-1-1b-as-investors-bet-on-stablecoins-going-mainstream">raised $1.1 billion</a>, signaling strong investor confidence in the mainstream adoption of stablecoins. The acquisition by Cathie Wood's team could highlight Ark's bullish outlook on the stablecoin sector, as Circle positions itself at the forefront of digital payments and blockchain innovation. The timing of the trade, closely following Circle's successful listing and capital raise, suggests Ark is betting on the company's ability to capitalize on the growing demand for regulated, transparent stablecoin solutions. 
The Palantir Trade
Ark sold 76,654 shares worth about $9.2 million of Palantir through its ARKK and ARKW funds. On Thursday, Palantir shares dropped 7.8% to $119.91. In the after-hours trading, the shares registered a 1.4% rise. The move came as Palantir CEO Alex Karp <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45800099/palantir-ceo-alex-karp-refutes-ridiculous-surveillance-reports-says-company-is-winning">addressed surveillance concerns</a> and emphasized the company's momentum in securing new contracts.
The Coinbase Trade
Ark trimmed its position by 161,304 shares in ARKK, ARKW and ARKF, a transaction valued at roughly $39.4 million.On Thursday, Coinbase shares closed at $244.20. This comes after Coinbase <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45764843/coinbase-crushed-tesla-amazon-and-other-mag-7-peers-in-recent-rally-heres-what-drove-the-stunning-comeback">outperformed major tech peers</a> in a recent rally, fueled by renewed optimism in the crypto sector.
The Robinhood Trade
Ark sold 255,327 Robinhood shares through ARKK and ARKW, amounting to $18.51 million. Robinhood shares closed at $72.51 for the day. The trade followed a period of gains for Robinhood stock, as the platform continues to evolve its offerings and attract retail investors. Robinhood shares rose Thursday after the company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45794817/robinhood-stock-is-rising-thursday-whats-going-on">record-high platform assets</a> and trading volumes for May, along with a 40% year-over-year increase in net deposits. The stock may also get a boost from a potential inclusion in the S&amp;P 500. 
Other Key Trades:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKB#NYSE">ARKB</a>): Ark reduced its stake by 168,675 shares, worth $17.14 million, continuing its recalibration of crypto-related holdings.

Cathie Wood Drops $373 Million On Circle's 168% Rally, Dumps Coinbase And Crypto Holdings — Is Ark Ditching Bitcoin for Stablecoins?

Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rally in 2025 has been nothing short of stratospheric, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto">the flagship crypto</a> blowing past the $100,000 mark and dreams of $200,000 swirling in the digital air. 
While bulls are eyeing the moon, two publicly traded names &#8211; MicroStrategy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) and Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) &#8211; are catching serious wind from the crypto updraft. But can they stay aloft, or are they flying too close to the sun?
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">MicroStrategy: Saylor's Billion-Dollar Crypto Binge</h2>
Michael Saylor has turned MicroStrategy from a business intelligence firm into a full-throttle Bitcoin proxy. With a stash of 580,250 BTC now worth $40.6 billion, the company's fate is fused to the price of Bitcoin. The latest move? 
A cool $427 million plowed into 4,020 more coins at $106,000 each. Forget quarterly reports &#8211; MSTR&#8217;s main KPI is BTC/USD.
The math is as wild as the strategy: if Bitcoin hits $150,000, MSTR could touch $2,000 per share. At $200,000? Expect targets of $3,500 and a Saylor victory lap. But there's turbulence too. 
When BTC dipped in late 2024, MSTR shed 30% in days. With short interest ballooning past $10 billion and critics warning the market cap now dwarfs Coinbase despite a fraction of its revenue, the stock looks less like a rocket and more like a loaded powder keg.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Coinbase: The Middleman Minting Money</h2>
Coinbase, on the other hand, is the infrastructure play &#8211; less glam, more grit. It isn't chasing Bitcoin highs with treasury funds, but instead cashing in on trading fees, ETF custodianship, and its expanding Base blockchain. It's the backstage pass to the crypto show.
When Trump's pro-crypto win sent BTC flying, COIN popped 36%. A modest January bump followed Bitcoin's 2% move. Analysts like the stability. With a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/COIN/analyst-ratings">consensus Buy rating</a> and growing ETF ties &#8211; $15 billion AUM inflows and counting &#8211; Coinbase is well-positioned for the long haul. Its $1 billion buyback announced last year is a cherry on top.
Still, Coinbase&#8217;s minimal Bitcoin holdings draw jabs from purists. But while MicroStrategy swings for home runs, Coinbase is playing the long game &#8211; consistent, diversified, and quietly raking in the chips.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Final Byte</h2>
Bitcoin's surge is minting winners &#8211; and MicroStrategy and Coinbase are riding different boards on the same crypto wave. 
One's a high-wire act with billions in BTC on the line. The other? A steady surfboarder cashing in on every wave.
Whether Bitcoin touches $200,000 or hits an air pocket, these two remain at the epicenter of crypto's most electrifying moment.

Bitcoin's Moonshot: Can MicroStrategy And Coinbase Keep Riding The Crypto Wave?

Tech investor Chamath Palihapitiya suggested Wednesday that Ripple Labs or Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) acquiring Circle Internet Financial would be a &#8220;genius&#8221; move, given the potential value of the stablecoin market.
What Happened: Palihapitiya stated in an X post that the Circle, issuer of the world&#8217;s second-largest stablecoin USD Coin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDC</a>), could be a valuable acquisition for leading cryptocurrency companies. 
He believed that Circle, which is 25x oversubscribed for its initial public offering and valued at around $7 billion, could be worth much more in the future. &#8220;If someone can buy it&nbsp;for even $12-13 billion, that's a&nbsp;steal, imo, for what this&nbsp;business could be worth in&nbsp;20 years,&#8221; Palihapitiya added.

Coinbase and Ripple didn&#8217;t immediately return Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment on this suggestion.

Palihapitiya also predicted a competition for stablecoin dominance among major companies like Stripe, Square (now Block, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/xyz#NYSE">XYZ</a>), Ripple, and Coinbase. 
&#8220;The company that builds the most efficient infrastructure and sells it for cheapest: cost-plus (with a thin margin on top) will probably take this market,&#8221; he added.
Why It Matters: Palhapitiya&#8217;s observation comes after Circe priced its IPO at $31 per share, above the previously marketed range of $27 to $28 per share. The company will now offer 34 million shares for $31 each when it&nbsp;debuts on the New York Stock Exchange&nbsp;on Thursday under the ticker &#8220;CRCL&#8221;, raising about $1.05 billion.
Circle will finally go public after an unsuccessful attempt in 2021. The 2021 SPAC deal was abandoned due to regulatory delays and market turbulence caused by the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/10/35445270/the-true-cost-of-the-ftx-collapse-how-much-did-sam-bankman-fried-really-make" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">collapse of crypto exchange</a>&nbsp;FTX.

Chamath Palihapitiya Says Circle IPO Valued At $7 Billion Means It's A 'Genius' Buy For Coinbase, Here's Why

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45762633/anthony-scaramucci-agrees-bitcoin-skeptic-jamie-dimon-would-be-a-welcome-alternative-as-president">JPMorgan Chase</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NASDAQ">JPM</a>) is preparing to allow clients in its trading and wealth management divisions to use certain cryptocurrency-related assets, specifically Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) ETFs, as collateral for loans.
What Happened: Quoting unnamed sources, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-04/jpmorgan-plans-to-offer-clients-financing-against-crypto-etfs?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=author_alert&amp;utm_term=250604&amp;utm_campaign=author_22647091&amp;embedded-checkout=true">reported </a>that the bank will initially begin offering financing backed by BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBIT#NASDAQ">IBIT</a>).
The change marks a significant policy adjustment as traditional financial institutions respond to regulatory shifts and growing client demand following the election of President Donald Trump, whose administration has taken a notably pro-crypto stance.
In addition to accepting Bitcoin ETFs for lending purposes, JPMorgan also intends to factor clients' crypto holdings into wealth assessments. 
The inclusion would place cryptocurrencies alongside more traditional assets such as equities, real estate, or collectibles in determining a client's borrowable value.
Though JPMorgan has declined to comment publicly on the developments, the move would build on its existing ties to the crypto space. 
The bank has long served clients like Coinbase (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) and was among the earliest financial giants to deploy blockchain-based payment services.

Why It Matters: Despite CEO Jamie Dimon&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45501880/jamie-dimon-opens-jpmorgan-to-bitcoin-access-despite-longstanding-criticism">personal skepticism</a>—he has said he's "not a fan" of Bitcoin—he has expressed support for client autonomy in digital asset investing.
"I don't think we should smoke, but I defend your right to smoke," he said in May. "I defend your right to buy Bitcoin, go at it."
The new lending framework is expected to be rolled out across JPMorgan's global wealth management segments, encompassing all client tiers, from everyday investors to high-net-worth individuals. 
Previously, crypto ETFs were considered as loan collateral only in isolated cases.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-spot-bitcoin-etfs">Spot Bitcoin ETFs</a>, introduced in the U.S. in January 2024, have since grown rapidly to manage over $128 billion in assets, ranking among the most successful ETF launches on record.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price has surged, hitting a peak of $111,980 in May, bolstered by Trump's election victory in November and his administration's crypto-friendly policies.
Industry donations have played a role in reshaping Washington's stance on digital assets, with Trump advocating several pro-crypto measures since taking office. 
His own family businesses have expanded into crypto ventures, including Bitcoin mining operations and memecoin initiatives, further signaling the asset class's growing political and financial influence.

JPMorgan To Accept Crypto-Linked ETFs As Loan Collateral

Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase Global Inc. overtook several Wall Street behemoths in a stunning rally last month, driven by its historic inclusion in the S&amp;P 500 and renewed cryptocurrency optimism.
What happened: The Nasdaq-listed company soared nearly 30% in the last month, marking a sharp reversal from its meltdown in April. The firm's stock was up 70% since its yearly low of $151.47.
In doing so, COIN outgained some of the biggest technology companies on the planet. As evident, its returns over the last month beat Amazon, Google's parent company Alphabet, electric vehicle juggernaut Tesla and all the other stocks in the high-performing "Magnificent 7" cohort.

Coinbase Crushed Tesla, Amazon And Other Mag 7 Peers In Recent Rally — Here's What Drove The Stunning Comeback

Jack Dorsey, co-founder and executive chair of Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>), reiterated the Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)-only strategy of its "Cash App" digital wallet service on Tuesday.
What happened: Dorsey took to X, stating, "We are Bitcoin only. And improving rapidly,&#8221; in response to a post that praised Cash App's Bitcoin features
The quoted post, by a Bitcoin maxi named HFSP.eth &#x7C; ₿itcoin Only, said that Cash App allows users to convert their direct deposits (e.g., paychecks)&nbsp; into Bitcoin without any fees or spread, i.e., the difference between buy and sell prices that platforms often charge.&nbsp;
"It&#8217;s the absolute best way to accumulate Bitcoin," the user said.

The post also mentioned that the withdrawal caps on Bitcoin increased to $10,000 per day and $25,000 per week, calling it a &#8220;huge improvement.&#8221; Previously, users were allowed to withdraw up to $2,000 worth of Bitcoin in a day and up to $5,000 in a week.

Why It Matters: Dorsey's commitment aligned with the company's push to expand its Bitcoin-related offerings.
The fintech firm <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44727594/jack-dorseys-block-is-making-it-easy-for-companies-to-manage-their-bitcoin-treasuryheres-how">launched a dashboard</a> in April to help companies effectively manage their Bitcoin corporate holdings.

Block was also gearing up for the delivery of its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45158116/jack-dorsey-upbeat-on-blocks-bitcoin-mining-chip-delivery-in-h2-2025-as-industry-faces-disruptions-due-to-high-chinese-equipment-tariffs"> first Bitcoin mining hardware</a> in the second half of the year.
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, BTC was exchanging hands at $105,431.31, down 0.03% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;
Shares of Block rose 0.14% in after-hours trading after closing 2.83% higher at $63.51 during Tuesday&#8217;s regular session.
The stock exhibited a very high growth score—a measure of the stock's combined historical expansion in earnings and revenue across multiple periods. How does it compare with Coinbase Global Inc.

Why It's Important: The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust remained the most-searched ticker for a second straight month. Nvidia also ranked second for a second straight month.
New to the top three in May was Palantir, which jumped from seventh place in April to third place in May. The ticker has been popular among investors and ranked in the top 10 each month this year. The third-place ranking is the top for Palantir in 2025.
Tesla fell from third to fourth place, following a fall in April from first to third place. With the highly anticipated launch of Tesla robotaxis in June, the stock could attract more attention and find its way back into the top three spots.
The list of the top 10 most-searched tickers in May included five new stocks compared to the list from April. This included Super Micro Computer jumping back into the top 10 after falling out of the top 20 in April. The stock has been popular among investors this year and saw its highest place on the list since February during the month of May.
D-Wave, a quantum computing stock, also returned to the top 10, ranking 8th in May. Hims &amp; Hers also moved back into the top 10, ranking ninth after previously being outside the top 20 in March and April and ranking 9th in February.
New to the top 10 in May that hadn't been in the top 20 any month this year were United Health and Asset Entities. United Health saw an executive transition announced and was reported to be the subject of a DOJ investigation, a claim the company later denied.
Asset Entities announced a merger and plans to become a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45550814/asset-entities-stock-has-skyrocketed-over-the-last-month-whats-going-on">holding treasury company</a>. SharpLink, which ranked 13th, also made a similar announcement but instead of investing in Bitcoin, the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis/25/05/45695750/sharplink-gaming-sbet-stock-soars-over-2600-in-a-week-on-ethereum-treasury-deal">is establishing an </a>Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) treasury.
CoreWeave, which went public on March 28, narrowly missed out on the top 10 with an 11th-place ranking for the month of May. The ranking could signal continued popularity for the cloud computing company a month after its IPO.
Advanced Micro Devices, Invesco QQQ Trust and Amazon.com were the three tickers in the 11th to 20th rankings that previously ranked in the top 20 in April, coming in at 18th, 4th and 13th, respectively.
This marked a significant fall for the Invesco QQQ Trust, which ranked fourth in March and April. This could signal less interest in the Nasdaq 100 and technology stocks during the month.
