\"Crypto<\/p>\n

Digital asset investment products recorded a second consecutive week of inflows, totalling $716M, showing improving sentiment across institutional and retail investors after a volatile period in crypto markets, according to the latest report from CoinShares.<\/a><\/p>\n

CoinShares reports<\/a> total assets under management rose 7.9% from their November lows to $180B, though this figure remains below the all-time high of $264B. Daily flow data indicated minor outflows toward the end of the week, which analysts believe reflected macroeconomic uncertainty and market reactions to U.S. inflation-related data. <\/p>\n

Despite those short-term jitters, the week\u2019s net performance highlights renewed confidence in digital asset exposure through exchange-traded products.<\/p>\n

A notable trend was the geographic spread of inflows, suggesting renewed interest globally rather than activity concentrated in a single region. The United States led with $483M in inflows, followed by Germany at $96.9M and Canada at $80.7M, demonstrating that institutional re-engagement with crypto markets is widening across regulated investment platforms.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Leads Inflows While Short Products Reverse<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bitcoin remained the primary focus for investors, recording $352M in inflows last week, contributing to year-to-date (YTD) inflows of $27.1B. This remains below the record $41.6B seen in 2024; however, continued inflows suggest persistent appetite for exposure despite reduced volatility and slower price momentum compared to previous cycles.<\/p>\n

In contrast, short-Bitcoin investment products saw outflows of $18.7M \u2014 the largest since March 2025. Analysts note that the previous occurrence coincided with price lows and later recovery, hinting that current negative sentiment may have exhausted itself, with investors positioning for a more favourable outlook.<\/p>\n

The reversal in short-Bitcoin demand could be interpreted as a tactical shift, where investors are less confident in prolonged downside risk and increasingly reassessing the potential for stabilization or upside in digital asset markets.<\/p>\n

XRP Sees Strong Momentum as Institutional Interest Accelerates<\/span><\/h2>\n

XRP continued to draw attention<\/a>, with $245M flowing into ETPs last week, bringing YTD inflows to $3.1B \u2014 a dramatic increase compared to $608M in 2024. The surge reflects heightened institutional engagement following greater clarity around its legal and regulatory landscape, which has broadened access and improved sentiment.<\/p>\n

The continued rise in XRP ETP demand marks one of the strongest comparative growth stories in the digital asset space this year, suggesting that investors may now be reassessing exposure beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum as the market diversifies.<\/p>\n

Chainlink Records Largest Inflows on Record<\/span><\/h2>\n

Chainlink<\/a> registered $52.8M in weekly inflows, representing over 54% of its total assets under management \u2014 the largest on record for the token. The surge highlights growing institutional and developer interest in the tokenized asset and oracle infrastructure ecosystem that Chainlink underpins.<\/p>\n

As tokenization of real-world assets expands and demand for reliable data connectivity increases across blockchains, Chainlink\u2019s growth may indicate a long-term thematic trend rather than short-term speculation.<\/p>\n

Digital asset ETPs saw US$716m in weekly inflows, lifting total AuM to US$180bn, though still well below the US$264bn all-time high. Bitcoin attracted US$352m while XRP (US$245m) and Chainlink (US$52.8m) also saw strong demand. Short-Bitcoin products saw outflows of US$18.7m, the\u2026<\/p>\n
