Last week, Ethereum led digital asset inflows with an astonishing $2.12 billion, nearly doubling its previous record. This surge propelled total digital asset investment product inflows to a new all-time weekly high of $4.39 billion, surpassing the previous record of $4.27 billion set after the US presidential election in December 2024.
According to the latest ‘Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report’ by CoinShares, Ethereum’s recent inflows over the past 13 weeks represent 23% of its total assets under management (AUM). This year alone, Ethereum has amassed $6.2 billion in inflows, already outpacing the total inflows recorded for the entire year of 2024. Concurrently, total assets under management reached a record $220 billion, and global weekly trading turnover in exchange-traded products (ETPs) hit a historic $39.2 billion.
Bitcoin attracted $2.2 billion in inflows last week, a decline from the previous week’s $2.7 billion, with ETP trading volumes accounting for 55% of Bitcoin’s exchange activity. Among altcoins, Solana garnered the highest inflows at $39 million, followed closely by XRP with $36 million and Sui with $9.3 million. Chainlink and Cardano recorded smaller inflows of $0.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Notably, multi-asset digital asset products were the only category to experience outflows, totaling $16.4 million over the week.
The inflows to altcoins underscore a rising investor interest beyond Bitcoin. QCP Capital highlighted a shift in market dominance, with Bitcoin’s share falling from 64% to 60%, while Ethereum’s market share climbed from 9.7% to 11.6%. This shift suggests that the next phase of altcoin season may already be unfolding.
Regionally, the United States dominated crypto fund inflows by attracting $4.37 billion last week. Switzerland followed with inflows of $47.3 million, Australia with $17.3 million, and Hong Kong with $14.1 million. Canada saw modest inflows totaling $3 million. Conversely, Brazil and Sweden experienced outflows of $28.1 million and $21 million, respectively, while Germany also recorded $15.5 million in weekly outflows.
