The digital asset market has rallied, recording a
substantial influx of $321 million in investments over the past week. This
trend follows the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) surprising 50 basis
point interest rate cut last week.
Rising Bitcoin Inflows
According to CoinShares’ weekly report, Bitcoin was
the standout performer, attracting $284 million in inflows. The combination of
the rate cut and recent price movements sparked heightened interest in
short-bitcoin investment products, which garnered $5.1 million.
In contrast, Ethereum has not fared well. The
second-largest digital asset recorded outflows for the fifth consecutive week,
totaling $29 million. Persistent withdrawals from the Grayscale Trust and
minimal support from newly launched ETFs, reportedly contributed to Ethereum’s
ongoing decline.
Regionally, the United States led the charge with $277
million in inflows, while Switzerland marked its second-largest weekly inflows
of the year at $63 million. However, Germany, Sweden, and Canada faced outflows
of $9.5 million, $7.8 million, and $2.3 million, respectively, indicating a
more cautious approach in those markets.
Emerging Trends
While Bitcoin continues to dominate the inflow
narrative, Solana has shown resilience, attracting consistent small inflows of
$3.2 million last week. As the digital asset landscape evolves, the impact of
monetary policy shifts and investor behavior could be important in impacting
the inflows in the digital asset space.
Expect ongoing updates as this story evolves.
