At the end of 2022, Bitcoin fell in price by more than 60%, and the market decline weakened the interest of institutional investors in crypto funds.
✅ The total inflow of capital into these instruments last year amounted to $433 million. This is the minimum since 2018: then institutions invested only $233 million in crypto funds, reports CoinShares.
✅ Bitcoin funds raised $287 million, and Ethereum experienced a capital outflow of $402 million.
✅ Funds focused on Litecoin (LTC) and Polygon (MATIC) received $2 million and $1 million, respectively.
✅ Solana funds, despite the collapse of FTX, raised $121 million.
✅ Curiously, the problems of Ripple could not neutralize the investment attractiveness of XRP. According to CoinShares, XRP funds received $32 million from institutions last year, the highest performance in five years.
