Crypto ETP Inflows Reach $619 Million as U.S. Funds Dominate

CoinShares reported $619 million in weekly crypto ETP inflows across global asset managers. The total followed nearly $1 billion in inflows during the previous week. As a result, the two-week rebound reversed five weeks of withdrawals.

Investor demand strengthened early in the week before moderating later. Products recorded $1.44 billion in inflows during the first three days. However, funds saw $829 million in outflows on Thursday and Friday.

James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, linked the shift to oil prices and inflation concerns. He stated, “The rise in oil prices offset any potential decline in inflation.” He added that overall flow data still showed positive sentiment during geopolitical stress.

Regionally, United States-based funds accounted for $646 million in inflows. In contrast, Europe recorded $23.8 million in withdrawals. Asia and Canada posted outflows of $2.2 million and $3.6 million, respectively.

Spot exchange-traded fund data aligned with the weekly totals. Between March 2 and March 6, spot bitcoin ETFs drew $568 million. Spot Ethereum and Solana ETFs added $23.6 million and $24 million, respectively.

Bitcoin Leads Allocations While Ethereum and Solana Add Support

Bitcoin-based investment products attracted $521 million during the reporting period. The allocations represented the largest share of weekly inflows. However, short-bitcoin products also recorded $11.4 million as some investors hedged positions.

Ethereum-linked products secured $88.5 million in weekly inflows. Solana-based funds followed with $14.6 million in new allocations. Smaller products tied to Uniswap and Chainlink each drew about $1.4 million.

XRP-based products recorded $30.3 million in outflows during the week. The withdrawals marked the only major category with net losses. Spot XRP ETFs also reported just over $4 million in outflows.

Bitcoin traded above $68,000 during the reporting window. The price reflected a weekly gain of about 3%, according to The Block’s data. However, bitcoin remained below $70,000 after briefly reaching the mid-$70,000 range.

CoinShares stated that overall flows reflected continued institutional engagement. The firm published the data in its latest weekly digital asset fund report. The report covered global crypto investment products managed by firms including BlackRock, Grayscale, and Bitwise.
