Crypto Bull Run Unstoppable: CoinShares Reveals $1.24B Weekly Inflows—10 Straight Weeks of Green

Crypto’s money firehose just won’t quit. Institutional investors dumped another $1.24 billion into digital assets last week—marking a decadelong streak of bullish conviction. Who said macro headwinds could derail this train?

The institutional stampede continues

Ten weeks. Ten wins. The numbers don’t lie—smart money’s stacking sats like there’s no tomorrow. Even gold bugs are sweating.

Wall Street’s worst-kept secret

While traditional finance pundits clutch their pearls over ‘volatility,’ crypto ETFs are vacuuming up capital faster than a hedge fund manager spotting a tax loophole. Guess which asset class is laughing all the way to the blockchain?

This isn’t a rally—it’s a reckoning. Buckle up.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Continue to Lead Institutional Demand

According to the breakdown, Bitcoin-focused investment products received $1.1 billion in net inflows for the week, marking the second straight week of significant capital entering BTC-related funds.

This occurred despite a broader price correction in the asset, a pattern CoinShares interprets as indicative of investors viewing the dip as a buying opportunity. Supporting this sentiment, short bitcoin products recorded outflows of $1.4 million, suggesting a decrease in bearish positioning.

Ethereum also maintained its strong performance, with inflows of $124 million marking the ninth consecutive week of positive sentiment for the asset. Cumulatively, this has brought inflows over the nine-week stretch to $2.2 billion, its longest sustained run of institutional buying since mid-2021.

Ethereum’s inflow streak comes amid heightened interest in the network’s staking ecosystem and Optimism surrounding future protocol upgrades.

Beyond the two leading digital assets, modest inflows were also recorded in other altcoins. solana funds saw $2.78 million in inflows, while XRP-based products attracted $2.69 million.

Though smaller in magnitude, these figures point to continued interest in diversified exposure beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, particularly in assets with strong infrastructure use cases.

Regional Trends Reflect Diverging Global Sentiment

On a geographic basis, the US market once again led in volume, with $1.25 billion of the total inflow attributed to American investors. Canada and Germany also recorded net inflows, with $20.9 million and $10.9 million respectively.

In contrast, Hong Kong and Switzerland experienced outflows of $32.6 million and $7.7 million, highlighting a degree of regional divergence in sentiment and positioning.

CoinShares Head of Research James Butterfill commented that while US inflows remain dominant, the week’s slowdown in the latter half may reflect broader market hesitance tied to holidays and geopolitical events.

Despite this, the aggregate YTD figure of $15.1 billion reflects growing institutional comfort with digital asset investment vehicles. The continued inflows come amid evolving regulatory discussions across major markets, including potential approvals for new digital asset products and tax incentives for investors.
