Digital asset investment products recorded their tenth consecutive week of inflows, totaling $1.24 billion last week, according to data from CoinShares. This sustained interest has propelled the year-to-date inflows to a record $15.1 billion in 2025, despite escalating geopolitical risks, including Israel's military actions against Iran and broader Middle East tensions.
Bitcoin led capital inflows with $1.1 billion during the week, marking its second consecutive week of positive inflows despite recent price corrections. US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs notably attracted $1.02 billion, with BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) reporting $1.23 billion in weekly inflows and surpassing $74 billion in assets under management. Meanwhile, short Bitcoin products experienced minor outflows of $1.4 million, indicating a decrease in bearish sentiment.
Ethereum maintained momentum with inflows of $124 million, extending its streak to nine consecutive weeks. Total inflows since mid-April have reached $2.2 billion. Ethereum's inflows benefited from spot Ethereum ETFs, which logged inflows on most trading days recently, totaling nearly $1.5 billion. The rise in institutional interest was attributed partly to Ethereum’s recent Pectra upgrade and growing macroeconomic appeal.
Other altcoins, such as Solana and XRP, showed modest inflows of $2.78 million and $2.69 million respectively, reflecting persistent but cautious demand for Layer 1 alternatives beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Geographically, the US led with $1.25 billion in regional inflows, pointing to strong domestic institutional demand. Analysts observe that despite global financial market volatility fueled by geopolitical uncertainty, investor appetite for crypto assets with solid fundamentals remains robust. The ongoing inflows underscore a broader positioning for long-term gains in the crypto market.
