Ethereum Dominates Crypto Inflows with $296M as Bitcoin Faces Continued Outflows

The latest CoinShares report reveals that digital asset investment products attracted $224 million in inflows over the past week, extending a bullish streak to seven consecutive weeks and a total of $11 billion.

However, momentum appears to be slowing as investors eye U.S. Federal Reserve signals amid lingering monetary policy uncertainty.

Ethereum Leads the Way

Ethereum emerged as the clear leader last week, pulling in $296.4 million in inflows—its strongest performance since the U.S. presidential election in November.

This marks Ethereums seventh consecutive week of inflows, now totaling $1.5 billion, or 10.5% of total assets under management (AUM). The surge signals renewed confidence in ETH among institutional investors.

Bitcoin Struggles to Maintain Momentum

In contrast, BTC investment products recorded $56.5 million in outflows for the second week in a row. Short-Bitcoin products also saw outflows, reflecting indecision as market participants await clarity from the Federal Reserve on inflation and rate cut timing.

Regional Flows and Altcoin Activity

The U.S. dominated regional inflows with $175 million, followed by Germany ($47.8M), Switzerland ($15.7M), Canada ($9.8M), and Australia ($6.5M). Meanwhile, Brazil and Hong Kong saw modest outflows of $9.2M and $14.6M, respectively—the latter breaking a streak of record inflows.

Altcoin activity remained muted. Sui recorded modest inflows of $1.1 million, while XRP marked its third straight week of outflows totaling $6.6 million, highlighting lingering caution among investors in the broader altcoin space.

Outlook

With the crypto market in a holding pattern, all eyes are on the Feds upcoming guidance. While Ethereum continues to attract institutional capital, broader sentiment remains cautious as macroeconomic uncertainty weighs on investor confidence.
