This marks the first time ARK has invested in COIN since the SEC focused on other platforms, such as NFTs, making the company more confident in jumping back in. Meanwhile, Apple has announced it will collect 30% of in-app NFT minting, saying apps offering exclusive access to NFT owners will be banned from links to other sites, with crypto exchange apps still exempt.
