Frequently Asked Questions about ARKB
How does Pre-Tick estimate the ARKB pre-market price?
When US equity markets are closed, Pre-Tick takes the last official ARKB close price and adjusts it by the percentage change in Bitcoin since that close, multiplied by the fund's 1x exposure. The result is a live, leverage-adjusted estimate of where ARKB is likely to open, updated as BTC moves on Binance 24/7.
What is the underlying asset of ARKB?
ARKB tracks Bitcoin (BTC) through directly held spot BTC in institutional custody.
Who issues ARKB?
ARKB is issued and managed by ARK Invest / 21Shares, listed on US exchanges for trading during standard US market hours.
What is the difference between ARKB and buying BTC directly?
Holding ARKB gives you BTC price exposure inside a regular brokerage account with no need to manage wallets, keys, or a crypto exchange account. You pay the fund's expense ratio, and the ETF only trades during US market hours — whereas BTC itself trades 24/7 on crypto exchanges.
