Digital Asset Investment Products See Record Growth Amid Macroeconomic Uncertainty
Digital asset investment products recorded $3.3 billion in inflows last week, pushing year-to-date (YTD) inflows to a record $10.8 billion, according to the latest industry data. Total assets under management (AuM) briefly reached an all-time high of $187.5 billion, driven by strong institutional interest and macroeconomic concerns such as rising U.S. Treasury yields and recent credit rating downgrades.
This marks the sixth consecutive week of inflows, totaling $10.5 billion during the period.
U.S. Leads Inflows as Bitcoin Dominates Weekly Activity
The United States led global inflows, attracting $3.2 billion last week. Other notable regions included:
Germany: $41.5 million
Australia: $10.9 million
Hong Kong: $33.3 million
Switzerland: -$16.6 million (outflows as investors took profits)
Bitcoin was the top-performing asset, receiving $2.9 billion in inflows, accounting for over 25% of all inflows in 2024. At the same time, short-Bitcoin investment products also saw their highest weekly inflow since December 2024, totaling $12.7 million, suggesting that some investors remain cautious after recent price gains.
Ethereum and XRP See Diverging Trends
Ethereum (ETH) recorded its highest inflow in over three months at $326 million, marking its fifth consecutive week of net positive flows. The uptick reflects gradually improving market sentiment surrounding ETH and growing interest in ETH-based investment vehicles.
In contrast, XRP experienced its first outflows in 80 weeks, totaling $37.2 million—the largest weekly outflow on record for the asset. The reversal follows an extended streak of inflows and may indicate a shift in investor outlook amid broader altcoin volatility.
