Bitcoin investment products took the lion’s share of investors’ interest with inflows of $123 million.
Crypto asset management products saw inflows for the second consecutive week ending Jun 30, totaling $125 million, according to CoinShares. This brings the last two weeks of inflows to $334 million, representing almost 1% of total assets under management (AuM).
Over the last two weeks, Bitcoin investment products took the lion’s share of investors’ interest with inflows of $123 million, representing 98% of all digital asset flows. Meanwhile, Multi-asset, Short Bitcoin, and Solana products saw outflows of $1.8 million, $0.9 million, and $0.8 million respectively.
According to ETF.com, ProShare’s BITO fund recorded inflows of $14.9 million on Jun 29, followed by an additional $11.9 million on Jul 3. This brought the fund’s total assets under management (AUM) to $1.04 billion – an increase of $218 million since Jun 15 – reflecting the continued growth in investor interest.
Although Short Bitcoin has experienced outflows for the past 10 weeks, amounting to 59% of its assets under management (AuM), it remains the second-best performing asset in terms of inflows for the year. Investors have contributed a total of $60 million to Short Bitcoin so far in 2023.
Per CoinShares, the recent increase in crypto value resulted in the total value of assets under management (AuM) reaching $37 billion during the week of Jun 30. This is the highest point since early June 2022 and is in line with the average AuM throughout the year. Trading activity also remained high, with a total of $2.3 billion traded during the week, which is significantly higher than the average trading volume of $1.5 billion so far this year.
Altcoin management products experienced modest inflows during the week. Among them, Ethereum attracted the highest amount of inflows, totaling $2.7 million. It was followed by Cardano, Polygon, and XRP, which also saw some inflows from investors of less than $1 million each.
Most of the inflows to crypto management products came from Germany, Canada and the United States, with Germany contributing $64.8 million, followed by Canada with $34.7 million and the United States with $22.7 million.
After witnessing nine consecutive weeks of outflows, blockchain equities received inflows of $6.8 million, indicating a shift in investor sentiment as the crypto market shows early signs of bullishness with Bitcoin testing the $30,000 zone in recent weeks.
