Crypto Investment Inflows Return as Five-Week Outflow Streak Ends at $5.4 Billion

Key Takeaways

• Crypto investment products posted net inflows after five weeks of record outflows.
• Bitcoin investment products and ETFs saw over $600 million in inflows.
• Altcoins continued to bleed and recorded another week of outflows.

After weeks of steady outflows, crypto investment products finally saw a reversal, with $644 million in net inflows last week.

The change in sentiment came after a brutal five-week stretch of withdrawals and was driven in part by optimism surrounding the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy.

Crypto Inflows Turn Positive, BTC Leads Recovery

According to CoinShares’ latest report , crypto investment products recorded daily inflows last week, marking a decisive shift from a 17-day stretch of withdrawals.

Bitcoin (BTC) led the bullish resurgence, attracting $724 million in net inflows and reversing the $5.4 billion outflow streak that had weighed heavily on the market.

Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) mirrored this trend, contributing a significant share of the weekly inflows.

The majority of inflows came from the United States, where investors poured $632 million into crypto investment products.

Other regions saw comparatively modest gains, with Switzerland recording $15.9 million in inflows, Germany $13.9 million, and Hong Kong $1.2 million.

Altcoins Lag Despite Bitcoin’s Surge

While Bitcoin’s rally fueled optimism, altcoins struggled to gain traction.

Ethereum (ETH) products saw another $86 million in outflows, maintaining its position as the hardest-hit asset among major cryptocurrencies.

Other altcoins also faced selling pressure. Sui (SUI) and Polkadot (DOT) each recorded $1.3 million in outflows, while Tron (TRX) and Algorand (ALGO) lost $950,000 and $820,000, respectively.

However, a few assets bucked the trend. Solana (SOL) led the altcoin market with $6.4 million in inflows, while Polygon (POL) and Chainlink (LINK) posted modest gains of $400,000 and $200,000.

Despite the mixed performance among altcoins, it’s evident that institutional and retail confidence is returning—at least for now.
