ARK Invest Scores Big as Circle’s $60B+ Valuation Rally Prints Generational Gains
Wall Street's crypto darling just turned hype into hard cash.
ARK Invest—Cathie Wood's disruptive tech fund—has quietly executed a masterstroke, capitalizing on Circle's parabolic surge past a $60 billion valuation. The move showcases how institutional players are finally learning to ride crypto volatility rather than fear it.
The stablecoin play that became a jackpot
While regulators still debate whether stablecoins count as 'real' money, ARK's timely exit proves they're very real profit engines. The firm's exit strategy mirrors savvy traders dumping meme coins at the top—except with extra zeros and a veneer of respectability.
When 'safe' assets moon
Circle's USD-backed token was designed for stability, not 10x gains. Yet here we are—another case of crypto turning conservative instruments into speculative rockets. Traders who mocked 'boring' stablecoin plays last year are now recalculating their life choices.
Bonus jab: Nothing brings Wall Street to crypto faster than watching someone else's balance sheet grow exponentially while their Treasury bonds collect dust.

Despite concerns over the company’s lofty multiples—trading at over 30x revenue and nearly 300x earnings—some market watchers argue the firm’s Core product, USDC, has established a dominant position in global stablecoin infrastructure, supporting long-term bullish sentiment.
With institutional interest in stablecoins accelerating, investors are now watching whether Circle can maintain its current pace—and potentially cement its lead over other crypto-native public companies.
