Crypto Funds Pull $1.1B In Best Week Since January As Risk Appetite Returns

Digital asset fund products attracted $1.1 billion in weekly inflows, the strongest since January, as easing geopolitical tensions and cooler U.S. inflation data revived investor appetite.

Bitcoin Leads $1.1B Weekly Surge

CoinShares's Volume 281 weekly report showed that Bitcoin (BTC) dominated the inflows with $871 million, pushing year-to-date totals to just under $2 billion.

The United States accounted for 95% of all capital entering digital asset products, with $1.06 billion flowing in from U.S.-based investors alone.

Germany followed with $34.6 million, while Canada and Switzerland contributed $7.8 million and $6.9 million, respectively. Trading volumes rose 13% week-on-week to $21 billion but remained well below the 2026 year-to-date average of $31 billion. Total assets under management recovered to levels last seen in early February.

Notably, bearish investors also stepped in. Short-Bitcoin products drew $20.2 million, the largest weekly inflow into that category since November 2024, suggesting persistent hedging activity even as broader sentiment improved.

Ethereum Recovery and Altcoin Flows

Ethereum (ETH) posted a notable rebound with $196.5 million in inflows but remains one of the few major assets still in a net outflow position for the year. XRP (XRP) attracted $19.3 million, while Solana (SOL) saw minor outflows of $2.5 million.

CoinShares attributed the broader reversal to tentative ceasefire developments involving Iran and softer-than-expected U.S. CPI and spending data.

Those macro signals appear to have drawn capital back into risk assets after weeks of mixed sentiment.

The prior week told a different story with $224 million recorded in inflows, with momentum fading late in the week after stronger retail sales data and hawkish investor expectations. Switzerland led that week's flows with $157.5 million, a sharp contrast to the U.S.-dominated pattern seen in the latest report.
