Amidst a resurgent market and renewed enthusiasm for Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency industry is abuzz with activity. As Bitcoin soars past the $34,000 mark , setting a new record high for 2023, investors closely monitor their portfolios and make strategic moves.

To navigate the surging market, investment management firm Ark Invest is recalibrating its portfolio with significant sell-offs of its Bitcoin-related asset holdings.
