Digital Asset Funds Receive Record-Breaking Inflow of $3.4 Billion, Third Highest Weekly Investment Ever
Investment Surge in Digital Assets: A Look at This Week's Record-Breaking Inflows
Digital investment products saw a whopping $3.4 billion inflow last week, marking the largest since mid-December 2024 and ranking as the third-biggest weekly inflow ever recorded. According to James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, this shift is due to mounting fears of tariffs affecting corporate earnings and the steep decline of the US dollar, leading investors to seek refuge in digital assets.
Bitcoin Tops the Charts
Last week's Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report showed Bitcoin investment funds dominated the activity, attracting $3.18 billion in inflows and boosting total digital asset assets under management to $132 billion. This is the highest figure since late February. Short-Bitcoin products also saw some action, registering $1.6 million in inflows, suggesting that some investors have positioned for a potential drawdown in Bitcoin as its price climbed above $90,000.
Meanwhile, Ethereum made a comeback with $183 million in inflows after eight consecutive weeks of outflows. However, Solana was the only altcoin to see a pullback, with $5.7 million in outflows, pushing its monthly total into negative territory at $13.9 million. Other notable mentions include Sui and XRP, which drew $20.7 million and $31.6 million, respectively, during the same period.
Multi-asset investment products also gained traction, with $2.4 million in inflows. Investor interest was evident in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tied to Bitcoin mining operations as well.
Positive Global Sentiment
In terms of region, US investors led the charge in digital asset investments last week, contributing $3.3 billion in inflows. Germany and Switzerland saw notable inflows of $51.5 million and $41.4 million, respectively, while Australia followed suit with $4.9 million. Sweden and Hong Kong also recorded modest gains of $4.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
However, not all regions saw growth — Canada and Brazil recorded a minor investor pullback with outflows of $1.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
Note: The surge in digital asset investments could be attributed to growing investor interest in digital assets as a safe-haven option amid economic uncertainty and concerns about weakening currencies. Institutional interest in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins, such as Solana, XRP, and Sui, is on the rise. Tokenization of real-world assets, like real estate and bonds, is accelerating, with institutions like BlackRock and Citigroup leveraging blockchain for 24/7 asset transfers and fractional ownership. The tokenized assets market could represent up to 10% of global GDP by 2030, with a potential value range of $9.82 billion to $16 trillion [1][2].
