What to make of it
Treat the share counts for Coinbase, Circle and Bullish, the Robinhood purchase size, and Coinbase's 3.98% decline as established since both outlets match on these. Do not rely on either the $3.4 million or $9 million Coinbase purchase figure until ARK's own daily trade disclosures are checked directly.
