Digital asset investment products recorded $2 billion in inflows last week, marking the third consecutive week of positive momentum and signalling a significant shift in investor sentiment after a prolonged period of outflows.
The latest data brings total inflows over the past three weeks to $5.5 billion. Year-to-date (YTD) inflows now total $5.6 billion, while recent price movements have driven total assets under management (AuM) to $156 billion, the highest level since mid-February.
Bitcoin Leads Inflows; Ethereum, Solana Follow
Bitcoin remained the primary focus of investors, attracting $1.8 billion in inflows during the past week. However, bearish bets also emerged, with $6.4 million in short-bitcoin products recorded — the highest since mid-December 2025 — suggesting some caution among investors despite recent price gains.
Ethereum saw $149 million in inflows last week, adding to the previous week’s $187 million for a two-week total of $336 million. Solana, often considered a competitor to Ethereum, experienced more modest inflows of $6 million over the same period.
Other altcoins saw varied investor interest. XRP and Tezos recorded inflows of $10.5 million and $8.2 million, respectively, indicating a broader but selective appetite for alternative digital assets.
U.S. Dominates Regional Activity
The United States accounted for the bulk of regional inflows, drawing $1.9 billion last week. Other countries, including Germany, Switzerland, and Canada, also posted gains of $47 million, $34 million, and $20 million, respectively. The inflows reflect growing support for digital asset products across key markets despite recent volatility.
Blockchain-related equities followed the broader trend, with $15.9 million in inflows, suggesting that investor interest extended beyond cryptocurrencies into the underlying technology sector.
Market Sentiment Rebounds
The recent uptick in inflows marks a notable reversal in market sentiment, following nine consecutive weeks of outflows earlier this year. While the renewed interest has been driven in part by rising prices, analysts suggest the broader investment landscape may also be contributing to increased allocations toward digital assets.
Though Bitcoin continues to dominate inflows, the activity across other assets and regions suggests a diversifying market. Still, the presence of short positions indicates that some investors remain cautious, keeping a close eye on price volatility and macroeconomic indicators.
