The inflows followed seven straight days of redemptions, suggesting investor sentiment may be stabilizing after sustained selling pressure.
Crypto News
Cryptocurrency investment products recorded $1.94 billion in outflows last week, marking the fourth consecutive week of heavy selling but showing slight improvement from the prior week's $2 billion exodus. The four-week total reached $4.9 billion, ranking as the third-largest outflow period on record.
CoinShares reported tentative signs of turnaround after $258 million flowed into crypto ETPs during the final trading days of the week. The inflows followed seven straight days of redemptions, suggesting investor sentiment may be stabilizing after sustained selling pressure.
Bitcoin saw the largest outflows at $1.27 billion for the week, while Ethereum funds lost $589 million. Total crypto market capitalization remains under pressure as investors reassess positions amid ongoing volatility.
XRP investment products defied the broader downturn with $89.3 million in weekly inflows despite the token declining 6.9% over the same period. The strong demand for XRP ETPs stood out as most other digital assets faced continued redemptions.
Solana products recorded $156 million in outflows as the token dropped 3.5% during the week. The selling across major altcoins reflects broader risk-off sentiment among cryptocurrency investors following weeks of market weakness.
Smart money traders tracked on Nansen's blockchain intelligence platform added $10.4 million in leveraged long positions on XRP over 24 hours. The cohort held $74 million in net long XRP positions, indicating professional traders expect near-term appreciation.
However, smart money remains bearish on Bitcoin with $325 million in cumulative net short positions. The divergence between Bitcoin and XRP positioning among sophisticated traders highlights differing outlooks across major cryptocurrencies.
Only two previous periods saw larger outflows than the current four-week stretch. The March tariff-driven sell-off and February 2018 downturn both exceeded the recent $4.9 billion in redemptions from cryptocurrency investment products.
CoinShares noted that late-week inflows may signal early improvement in market sentiment, though overall conditions remain challenging for digital asset funds.
