Crypto Investment Boom: 11 Consecutive Weeks of Surging Capital Inflows

Wall Street's latest addiction? Pouring cash into crypto products like there's no tomorrow.

Eleven straight weeks of inflows—enough to make even the most hardened Bitcoin skeptic raise an eyebrow. Institutional money's flooding in, chasing returns while traditional markets nap.

The real kicker? This rally's outlasting most analysts' 'temporary hype' predictions. Guess those 'experts' forgot to check their spreadsheets.

Funny how fast 'risky speculative assets' become 'portfolio essentials' when there's FOMO in the air. Just don't ask what happens when the music stops.

Investor Preferences in Bitcoin and Altcoins

Bitcoin (BTC)$107,646 remains a dominant choice, comprising 83% of the weekly total inflow, equal to $2.2 billion. Reflecting this bullish sentiment, there was a $2.9 million outflow from short bitcoin products, accumulating a $12 million total outflow since the beginning of the year.

Ethereum (ETH)$2,457 investment products also saw substantial activity, with a notable $429 million inflow. Since the start of the year, ethereum has attracted over $2.9 billion in net investments, indicating persistent confidence from investors.

Meanwhile, major altcoins like Solana$150 (SOL) observed more modest inflows, with only $91 million total inflow since the start of the year. Other altcoins such as XRP received $10.6 million last week, Sui $1.4 million, Cardano$0.56471 (ADA) $700,000, and Chainlink$13 (LINK) $800,000. Litecoin (LTC) products saw no net movement.

This scenario shows that a substantial portion of investor capital is concentrated on Bitcoin and Ethereum-based products.

US Dominates Regional Fund Flow

The United States led the regional inflows dominantly with a net of $2.65 billion. In contrast, Switzerland saw $23 million, and Germany $19.8 million, reflecting much smaller-scale inflows.

On the other hand, Canada reported a $13.6 million outflow, Brazil $2.4 million, and notably, Hong Kong experienced a $2.3 million outflow. Hong Kong is witnessing a consistent outflow trend, with a net outflow of $132 million in June alone following recent price increases.

These regional differences point to varying risk perceptions and regulatory environments across the global investment landscape, with the US maintaining a significant leadership position.
