Digital asset investment products see a third consecutive week of inflows, totaling $2 billion, driven by Bitcoin and Ethereum, according to CoinShares.

Investor sentiment in the digital asset market continues to show strength as investment products recorded a third consecutive week of inflows, according to CoinShares. Last week alone saw a substantial inflow of $2 billion, bringing the total for the past three weeks to an impressive $5.5 billion. This marks a significant turnaround from the nine weeks of outflows that preceded this period.

Bitcoin Dominates Inflows

Bitcoin (BTC) emerged as the primary driver of these inflows, attracting $1.8 billion last week. Despite the positive sentiment, some bearish investors also contributed $6.4 million, marking the highest level of bearish investments since mid-December 2025. This indicates a mixed but predominantly optimistic outlook for Bitcoin within the investment community.

Ethereum and Other Altcoins

Ethereum (ETH) also demonstrated robust performance, recording a second consecutive week of solid inflows totaling $149 million. Over the past two weeks, Ethereum has accumulated $336 million in inflows. Meanwhile, Solana (SOL) saw more modest interest with $6 million in inflows.

Other cryptocurrencies such as XRP and Tezos (XTZ) also made notable contributions, with inflows of $10.5 million and $8.2 million, respectively. These figures underline a diverse interest in various digital assets beyond the leading cryptocurrencies.

Regional and Sectoral Insights

Regionally, the United States led the inflows with $1.9 billion, followed by Germany, Switzerland, and Canada, which contributed $47 million, $34 million, and $20 million, respectively. This widespread geographical interest suggests a broad-based supportive sentiment for digital asset investment products globally.

In addition to digital assets, blockchain equities also experienced positive inflows, totaling $15.9 million. This indicates a growing confidence in the broader blockchain sector, reflecting its potential for innovation and growth.

Overall, the total assets under management (AuM) in digital asset investment products have risen to $156 billion, the highest level since mid-February this year. This upward trend highlights the increasing institutional and retail investor confidence in the digital asset class.
