Bitcoin Maintains Dominant Position
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 Sees Strong Momentum
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.
Regional Flow Distribution
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.
Mixed Results Across Providers and Assets
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.

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.
