According to the latest edition of CoinShares’ Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly <a href="https://blog.coinshares.com/volume-217-digital-asset-fund-flows-weekly-report-02c0bf3c093d" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="external">Report</a>, Bitcoin recorded $1.9 billion in inflows last week. The latest figure pushed its year-to-date (YTD) inflows to $2.7 billion. Interestingly, despite the recent price increases, there were small outflows of $0.5 million from short positions, which contrasts with the typical inflows observed during periods of positive price momentum.
Ethereum experienced inflows of $246 million, <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/post-us-election-honeymoon-ends-as-macroeconomic-data-drives-markets/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="internal">reversing</a> its year-to-date outflows, though it remains the weakest performer in terms of flows this year. Still, these figures overshadow Solana’s modest $2.5 million in inflows.
XRP added $31 million in inflows last week, bringing its total since mid-November 2024 to an extraordinary $484 million. Chainlink reported $2.8 million in inflows, followed by multi-asset products with $2.7 million and Stellar with $2.1 million. Meanwhile, Litecoin and Cardano each saw modest inflows of $0.5 million during the same period.
The United States led the way with $2 billion in inflows over the past week, while Switzerland and Canada also saw significant activity, with $89 million and $13.4 million, respectively. Australia and Brazil contributed $5.3 million and $4.2 million in inflows, while Hong Kong recorded a modest $0.5 million. Sweden and Germany, on the other hand, experienced outflows of $14.5 million and $2.4 million respectively.

Ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States, Bitcoin has <a href="https://cryptopotato.com/bitcoin-btc-sees-new-ath-chainlink-link-explodes-15-daily-market-watch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="internal">surpassed</a> $109,000, sparking expert forecasts of continued growth.
According to CryptoQuant’s recent <a href="https://cryptoquant.com/community/dashboard/6788ee5e37939776ed27f31b?" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-wpel-link="external">analysis</a>, for instance, Bitcoin prices could reach $145,000 to $249,000 in 2025, driven by institutional capital flows, supportive US monetary policies, and historical cyclical trends. The incoming US administration’s pro-crypto stance, including crypto-friendly regulators and potential executive actions, is expected to boost demand.
On top of that, projected interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve may further enhance the appeal of risk assets like Bitcoin. Historical patterns indicate that 2025, the final year of Bitcoin’s 4-year cycle, typically sees significant price gains. The on-chain analytic platform projects $520 billion in new capital inflows during this period, measured using realized capitalization.
It is also important to note that institutional investors, including custodial services and ETFs holding 100 to 1,000 BTC, have already increased their holdings by $127 billion in 2024. Moreover, past cycles witnessed inflows surge from $86 billion in 2015-2018 to $440 billion by early 2025.
