Cathie Wood built ARK Invest around disruptive innovation, with blockchain technology among its core focus areas. ARK's Next Generation Internet ETF began investing in Bitcoin-related equities in 2015, among the earliest U.S. ETFs to gain Bitcoin exposure. Working with 21Shares, she launched the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB), which received SEC approval and began trading in January 2024 on the Cboe BZX Exchange, with Coinbase serving as prime broker and custodian. ARKB reached approximately $3.3 billion in AUM and generated $2.4 billion in cumulative inflows since its launch, becoming the third Bitcoin ETF to record over $200 million in a single day of inflows. ARK ended its 21Shares partnership on an Ethereum spot ETF filing in mid-2024, while the ARKB collaboration remained intact.

Cathie Wood and 21Shares integrated Chainlink's Proof of Reserve platform in February 2024 to verify and publicly disclose Bitcoin holdings for ARKB. ARK's Big Ideas 2025 report, published in January 2025, projected Bitcoin at $300,000 in a bear case, $710,000 in a base case, and $1.5 million in a bull case by 2030, with Bitcoin's market cap projected at $16 trillion. In November 2025, Wood revised that 2030 bull-case target downward to $1.2 million, citing stablecoins taking on part of the role she had expected Bitcoin to play in payments and remittances. In January 2026, ARK Invest filed with the SEC for two crypto index ETFs tied to the CoinDesk 20 index, proposed to list on NYSE Arca. In April 2025, ARK purchased 500,000 shares of the 3iQ Solana Staking ETF, broadening its crypto exposure to Solana. As of 2024, Wood reportedly held approximately 25% of her personal net worth in Bitcoin, and in November 2024 she publicly described the SEC under Gary Gensler as a menace to the crypto sector, backing a change in SEC leadership.
