Crypto-related investment products recorded an influx of $3.4 billion last week, marking the most significant weekly influx and the third highest influx on record since mid-December 2024. Coin share’ Latest report.

James Butterfill, head of research at Coinshares, has linked the surge to growing concerns about weakening the US dollar and fears about tariff-related effects on corporate revenue.

He noted that this influx shows investors increasingly turning to digital assets as a safe option amid global economic uncertainty.

US Bitcoin products attract more than $3 billion inflows

Bitcoin investment products account for almost 94% of the total inflow last week, according to Coinshares.

This is evidenced by the fact that US-based Spot Bitcoin Exchange Fund (ETF) products have registered the strongest week since Donald Trump returned to the White House in January.

Collectively, the Bitcoin ETF attracted more than $3 billion inflows, while BlackRock’s IBIT led the way by securing more than half of its new funds.

Meanwhile, a new wave of investment has brought the total assets of Bitcoin-related products to $132 billion. This is a milestone that has not been seen since February 2025.

Market analysts suggest that the inflow reflects Bitcoin’s increased independence from traditional risky assets such as US stocks, enhancing its appeal as a safe asset.

To reflect this momentum, Bitcoin prices skyrocketed over 8% last week, reaching $94,682 at press time. Encryption.

Ethereum reverses negative trends

Ethereum also reversed the recent trend in outflows, attracting $183 million in new investments. This marks the end of eight weeks of negative sentiment that had a major impact on the second largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

Other Altcoins recorded smaller but notable influx. XRP and SUI saw new investments of $31.6 million and $20 million, respectively.
