Institutional investors showed resilience amidst market volatility, injecting nearly $530 million into digital asset investment vehicles last week. The US led the influx, with $474 million flowing in. Despite the tumult caused by Trump tariffs and DeepSeek, Bitcoin (BTC) attracted the bulk of inflows at $486 million. Notably, XRP emerged as the second most popular altcoin of the year, garnering significant inflows of $14.7 million. CoinShares' data underscores the confidence of institutional investors, with the US witnessing the highest influx, Europe contributing $78 million, and Canada experiencing outflows of $43 million. While Ethereum broke even, XRP's $105 million in year-to-date inflows solidified its standing as a leading altcoin.
CoinShares' report illuminates the resilience of institutional investors, who injected nearly $530 million into digital asset investment vehicles despite market volatility induced by broader concerns such as DeepSeek news and Trump tariffs. Although the market initially plummeted with $530 million in outflows, it rebounded with over $1 billion in inflows later in the week. With a total of $44 billion in inflows in 2024 and $5.3 billion year-to-date, coupled with substantial price gains, this sell-off was not unforeseen. The US led the inflows at $474 million, with Europe contributing $78 million, while Canada experienced outflows of $43 million possibly due to trade tariff threats. Bitcoin dominated the inflows with $486 million, while XRP emerged as the second most popular altcoin of the year with $105 million in year-to-date inflows, trailing only behind Ethereum.
