Crypto Fund Assets Hit All-Time High in May with $7.05B Net Inflows
Crypto fund assets reached a record high in May, driven by $7.05 billion in net inflows as institutional investors increasingly turned to digital currencies for portfolio hedging and diversification amid ongoing market uncertainty2. According to Reuters, assets managed by crypto funds climbed to an unprecedented $167 billion, reflecting a surge in demand as investors seek alternatives to traditional U.S. holdings and look to protect against volatility.
This trend underscores a broader shift, with bitcoin and other digital assets gaining traction as mainstream investment tools. Institutional adoption has been further boosted by the approval of spot bitcoin and ether ETFs in the U.S., positioning crypto as a core component in diversified portfolios.
