What happened
Bitcoin and Cathie Wood are partying like it's 2021 again: Chart of the Day Jared Blikre Fri, August 28, 2026 at 7:01 PM GMT+9 2 min read BTC-USD ARKK Bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) and the Ark Innovation Fund ( ARKK ) are both up more than 20% in August, something that has happened only four other times since Cathie Wood launched her flagship ETF in 2014. Late 2020 and early 2021 were the age of zero interest rates, stimulus checks, SPACs, meme stocks, crypto millionaires, and seemingly every company finding a way to put "innovation" in its pitch deck. ARKK became one of the defining trades of the era.
