At the same time, ARKW and ARKF funds bought 237,500 shares each of the 3IQ Solana Staking ETF (SOLQ.U). In total, they purchased 475,000 shares, valued at around $4.95 million.

In the past year, Bitcoin (BTC) has seen a 25% increase, while Solana (SOL) has remained flat. ARK Invest's shift suggests they are bearish on Bitcoin but bullish on Solana. This could indicate an upcoming altcoin rally.
