As the year starts, institutional investors have begun to accumulate investment products such as Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Solana.
A new report from CoinShares shows that digital asset investments products have seen net inflows of $582 millions over the last week. This is despite earlier outflows.
The year began with a bang last Friday when US $671m was inflicted, which brought the total week’s inflows up to US $582m after earlier outflows.
Institutions poured $512 millions into BTC last week and an additional $119 million to Ethereum. They also pumped $10.7 into XRP. The third largest crypto asset, Solana, saw a $30 million outflow.
This strong start comes after a successful finish in 2025 when digital assets products attracted a total of $47.2 billion. That was just short of the record set by $48.7 million for 2024.
Last year, the US was responsible for most of the inflows. The total amount reached $44.5 billion. This figure represents a decline of 12% from 2024. Germany, however, made the biggest turnaround with $2.5 billion of inflows, after a year in which it had seen outflows. Canada saw an increase of $1.1 billion while Switzerland experienced an inflow of $775 million.
In 2025, Bitcoin (BTC), product sales will reach $26,9 billion. The market for short-term bitcoin products attracted $105 million, but it was still a tiny segment.
Ethereum led the asset gains with $12.7 billion of inflows. This is a 138% increase year-over-year. XRP, Solana, and a few others followed, with $3.6 billion inflows and gains of up to 1,000%.
Other altcoins also saw a decline in sentiment, as the number of new users fell by 30%.
