TL;DR
Digital Asset investment products attracted $1.06 billion in inflows last week, marking the third consecutive week of gains. The surge came amid ongoing geopolitical disruption, reinforcing Bitcoin’s reputation as a relative safe haven. Since the onset of the Iran crisis, total assets under management across Digital Asset ETPs have risen 9.4% to $140 billion, underscoring investor confidence in the sector.
Bitcoin accounted for 75% of total inflows, amounting to $793 million. This pushed its three-week inflow total to $2.2 billion, closing in on the prior five-week period of $3 billion in outflows. Bitcoin’s total assets under management reached $111.3 billion, supported by $1.33 billion in new investments this month and $933 million year-to-date. Short-Bitcoin products also saw $8.1 million in inflows, reflecting a polarized market sentiment despite the broader positive trend in Digital Asset markets.
Ethereum recorded $315.3 million in inflows, its strongest weekly performance in recent months. The launch of new US staking ETF listings played a key role in driving demand. Month-to-date, Ethereum has attracted $405.4 million, though year-to-date flows remain slightly negative at $23 million. Its total assets under management stood at $16.7 billion, showing signs of recovery after a difficult start to the year. Ethereum’s rebound highlights the growing diversity within the Digital Asset sector.
The United States dominated activity, contributing $1.02 billion or 96% of global inflows. Canada added $19.4 million, while Switzerland posted $10.4 million. Hong Kong recorded $23.1 million, its largest inflow since August 2025. Germany stood out as the only major market to register outflows, shedding $17.1 million, marking its first weekly decline of 2026. Sweden also saw a minor $0.5 million outflow. These regional dynamics emphasize how Digital Asset flows remain concentrated in North America while Europe shows mixed results.
Among fund providers, iShares led with $790 million in inflows, boosting its year-to-date total to $891 million. Fidelity added $247 million, while Bitwise brought in $25 million. Grayscale posted a small $8 million outflow, continuing its net negative trend for the year. XRP was the week’s weakest performer, recording $76.1 million in outflows, its second consecutive week of losses. In contrast, Solana logged $9.1 million in inflows, extending its positive streak, while smaller gains were seen in Sui, Chainlink, and multi-asset products. These results show how Digital Asset providers are experiencing divergent fortunes, with some gaining traction while others struggle.
