Bitcoin ETF interest drove $2.5B weekly crypto fund inflow record

Crypto funds at asset managers such as BlackRock, Fidelity, Grayscale, Bitwise, ProShares, and 21Shares reported an enormous inflow of $2.45 billion globally, as per the CoinShares’ report.

The most recent spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds in the United States are currently at the peak, indicating a potential $5.2 billion inflow into digital asset investment products.

The assets under management of the cryptocurrency investment enterprises are estimated to be worth $67 billion when combined with the most recent price increases. This is the all-time high following December 2021. James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, explains that this is in the midst of the ascent associated with the prior bull market.

Bitcoin is currently valued at $52,188, representing a 25% increase, according to the data dashboard of Block.

The United States maintained its position as the undisputed leader, accounting for 99% of the weekly inflow, or $2.4 billion in total. The inflow of capital was comprised of funds originating from Switzerland and Germany, amounting to $16.7 million and $13.3 million, respectively. Regarding Sweden, the amount of capital outflow was $26.3 million.

The significant rise in net inflows, coupled with a decline in outflows from necessities such as Grayscale’s converted GBTC fund, indicates a growing preference for the most recent U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs.

In the realm of bitcoin investment products, they maintained their position as the frontrunners, accounting for 99% of the influx from the previous week. With $5.8 million in additional inflows into short-bitcoin products, certain investors increased their short positions.

Ether emerged as the frontrunner among funds developed with altcoins in mind. A sum of $21.1 million was received as incoming funds. The Avalanche funds experienced an inflow of $1 million, of which $900,000 was contributed by Chainlink and Polygon products.

The scenario for Solana investment products was not particularly encouraging, with outflows totaling $1.6 million. Blockchain equities ETF investors sought returns, resulting in $167 million in outflows.
