Cathie Wood‘s company has been reducing its BITO holdings through ARKW as part of its strategy to increase its shares in its own spot Bitcoin ETF since receiving approval from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The company had previously moved to sell its assets in the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) to acquire BITO shares before SEC approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs. 
Since the SEC’s ETF approval, Ark Invest has been selling its BITO shares and swapping them for its own spot Bitcoin ETF. Wood recently stated that they have set a goal of $4 billion for their own spot Bitcoin ETF and that purchases will continue to reach this target. 
According to Yahoo Finance data, ARKB is trading at $41.33, up 0.93% before today’s trading session. It’s worth noting that ARKB closed the January 18th trading session at $40.95.
