Cathie Wood Purchases Coinbase Stock

The price of Coinbase's stock rose around 7% to $34.78 in New York on Thursday. The exchange's shares have dropped 86% this year as a result of the severe cryptocurrency market correction. The greatest digital asset in the world, bitcoin, has declined by 65% year to date. While the Ethereum protocol's name-brand token has declined by 66%. COIN has lagged behind both bitcoin and ether.

Cathie Wood bought 176,945 shares of Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) for $1,5 million in late November, demonstrating her commitment to the cryptocurrency. In comparison to the total investment value of bitcoin, shares in GBTC are now trading at a 48% discount.

Acquisition of Tesla Shares

Digital Currency Group, which is also the parent company of CoinDesk, owns Grayscale. In addition, according to a transaction report from December 30, Wood bought 22,514 shares of Tesla (TSLA) stock for ARK's Innovation ETF (ARKK), valued at around $2.74 million. Investors' concerns about rising inflation and a potential downturn driving down demand for pricey electric vehicles are the reason why TSLA has fallen by over 69% this year.
