Cryptocurrency investment products notched their fifteenth consecutive week of inflows, capping last week in positive territory—even as Bitcoin-based funds experienced modest outflows.
According to a new report from European digital asset manager CoinShares, crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) attracted $1.9 billion in net inflows during the trading week ending Friday. The continued momentum comes despite notable volatility in the market, with Bitcoin plunging to $115,000 and Ether briefly sliding below $3,600 on Thursday, as per CoinGecko data.
The sustained inflows pushed year-to-date totals to a record $29.5 billion, while assets under management (AUM) hit an all-time high of $221.4 billion. CoinShares also reported a new monthly record of $11.2 billion in inflows so far in July, surpassing the $7.6 billion set in December 2024, shortly after the U.S. elections.
Ether emerged as the week’s standout performer, with investment products tied to ETH raking in $1.59 billion—the second-largest weekly inflow for Ether ETPs on record. Solana and XRP products also posted strong numbers, pulling in $311.5 million and $189.6 million respectively.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin investment vehicles broke their 12-day inflow streak on July 21, posting $175 million in outflows. CoinShares’ head of research James Butterfill noted that the divergence between Bitcoin and altcoin flows could indicate investor positioning ahead of potential U.S. altcoin ETF approvals.
“These altcoin inflows may be driven less by broad-based enthusiasm and more by anticipation surrounding potential US ETF launches,”
Butterfill explained.
However, not all altcoins shared in the gains. Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash products saw minor outflows of $1.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively, signaling selective interest among investors.
Despite the dip in Bitcoin sentiment, the overall trend suggests continued institutional confidence in digital asset investment vehicles, particularly among Ethereum-aligned products.
According to a June 23 report from CoinShares, global cryptocurrency ETPs attracted $1.24 billion in net inflows during the trading week ending June 21. The surge pushed year-to-date (YTD) inflows to a record-breaking $15.1 billion, marking a new all-time high for the crypto ETP market.
