Cathie Wood’s ARK sells 135K Coinbase shares as price hits

Multiple Coinbase executives, including CEO Brian Armstrong, have been selling their shares as the price rallied in recent months. On July 6, Armstrong and several other senior Coinbase execs sold a combined total of 88,058 shares worth about $6.9 million at the time. Previously, Coinbase chief accounting officer Jennifer Jones also offloaded 74,375 shares on June 29, netting $5.2 million.

The rise of Coinbase stock comes despite the exchange facing a securities violation lawsuit from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The growth could be primarily attributed to a fear of missing out on the BlackRock spot Bitcoin ETF filing, which named Coinbase a “surveillance-sharing” partner.
