CryptoInflows

The crypto market is heating up again—and this time, institutional investors are leading the charge. According to the latest report from CoinShares, digital asset investment products saw a massive $2 billion in inflows last week alone. This marks the third consecutive week of strong positive sentiment, ending a long streak of outflows and suggesting a bold return of confidence in the market.
With a total of $5.5 billion in inflows over three weeks, year-to-date (YTD) inflows have now reached $5.6 billion. The momentum is undeniable—and the big players are clearly betting big on crypto again.
🟠 Bitcoin Dominates With $1.8 Billions Inflows
Bitcoin (BTC) remains the top pick for institutional money. It attracted a jaw-dropping $1.8 billion in inflows last week, reinforcing its role as the digital gold standard in volatile markets.

But it’s not all sunshine. The report also revealed $6.4 million in bearish positions, the highest since December 2023. That means while the majority sees green ahead, some are hedging against short-term risks—perhaps a reminder that Bitcoin's road to $100K could still face some bumps.
🌐 Ethereum Rallies With Anticipated Upgrade
Ethereum (ETH) had a stellar two-week run, attracting $149 million last week and $187 million the week before. That’s a total of $336 million pouring into ETH products in just 14 days.
Why the sudden interest? All eyes are on the upcoming Pectra upgrade, expected to enhance staking and cut gas fees—two of Ethereum's most critical functions. The upgrade is generating excitement not just among developers and users, but also among institutional investors looking for long-term value.
🌍 Regional Breakdown: U.S. Takes the Lead
The United States was the largest contributor to last week's inflows, pulling in a whopping $1.9 billion. Other countries followed with modest but notable investments:

Germany: $47 millionSwitzerland: $34 millionCanada: $20 million

This surge reflects growing global interest in crypto, especially in regions working toward regulatory clarity and spot ETF approvals. The U.S., in particular, is benefiting from institutional confidence linked to ETF accessibility and evolving crypto legislation.

💎 Altcoins & Blockchain Equities: Slow but Steady
While BTC and ETH dominated, several altcoins and blockchain-related equities also caught investor attention:

XRP: $10.5 millionTezos (XTZ): $8.2 millionSolana (SOL): $6 million
Meanwhile, blockchain equities—stocks tied to companies building crypto infrastructure—brought in $15.9 million. This shows that investors aren’t just buying coins; they’re backing the companies powering the ecosystem.
💼 Assets Under Management Hit $156B
Total assets under management (AuM) across digital asset products hit $156 billion, the highest level since February 2025. This is largely due to both price increases in major cryptocurrencies and the wave of new capital entering the market.

📊 What Does This Mean for Crypto?
The return of big money into crypto—especially Bitcoin and Ethereum—is a strong bullish signal as we enter Q2 2025. The combination of
