Ethereum Leads the Charge as Investors Pull $555 Million Amid Clarity Act Uncertainty

For the first time in a month, digital asset investment products saw money flowing out as total outflows reached $952 million. According to CoinShares, this pullback happened because investors reacted negatively to postponements around the US Clarity Act. These delays have extended uncertainty about how cryptocurrencies will be regulated in the US.

At the same time, concerns remain that whales have continued to sell their holdings. Hence, the European asset manager said that it is very unlikely that crypto ETPs will attract more inflows than they did last year. Currently, total assets under management stand at $46.7 billion, down from $48.7 billion in 2024.

Solana and XRP Attract Fresh Capital

The latest edition of “Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report” shows that Ethereum recorded the largest outflows among digital asset investment products, as investors pulled out around $555 million over the past week. CoinShares said that this reaction is understandable because Ethereum stands to benefit the most, or be impacted the most, by the outcome of the US Clarity Act.

Despite this short-term weakness, Ethereum’s overall performance this year remains strong. Total inflows in 2025 have already reached $12.7 billion, which is far higher than the $5.3 billion recorded last year.

Bitcoin also experienced notable outflows of $460 million and continues to lag behind its 2024 performance, as market prices struggle to recover. So far this year, Bitcoin pulled in over $27 billion, compared to $41.6 billion last year. Multi-asset products and Sui also shed $55.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

On the other hand, Solana and XRP continue to attract investor interest, with inflows of $48.5 million and $62.9 million. Chainlink also remained in positive territory after adding a modest $3.3 million.

Global Digital Asset Flows

The negative sentiment in digital asset investments was mainly concentrated in the US, which saw $990 million in outflows. Sweden, Switzerland, and Hong Kong followed suit with $18.7 million, $5.4 million, and $1.6 million, respectively.

These outflows were partially offset by inflows from other regions. Investors in Germany added $46.2 million, Canada contributed $15.6 million, and smaller amounts came from Australia and Brazil at $1.8 million and $0.3 million.
