Cryptocurrency Investment Funds See Record Inflows
A new report has revealed significant inflows into cryptocurrency investment funds in the past week, signaling a surge in institutional interest and market activity.
Bitcoin Dominates Institutional Inflows
Bitcoin has continued to attract the majority of institutional inflows, with its products recording 99% of the total figure. The approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs by the SEC has further bolstered investor confidence in the cryptocurrency, leading to a record $2.42 billion in inflows last week.
Altcoins Benefit from Institutional Interest
Following the bullish momentum in Bitcoin, altcoins have also experienced increased institutional activity. Ethereum (ETH) saw $21 million in inflows, with positive sentiments revolving around the prospect of a spot Ethereum ETF in the US. Other altcoins such as Solana (SOL), Avalanche (AVAX), Chainlink (LINK), and Polygon (MATIC) also recorded notable inflows, indicating a broader institutional interest in the cryptocurrency market.
Inflows Distributed Widely Among Jurisdictions
The United States emerged as the leader in institutional inflows, with newly approved ETFs driving a majority of the total $2.4 billion inflows. Switzerland and Germany also saw significant inflows, while Canada experienced net outflows. This distribution of inflows among various jurisdictions reflects a growing interest in spot-based ETFs and indicates a shift in investor preferences.
