Digital asset investment products recorded $230M in net inflows last week, a marked deceleration from recent weeks. CoinShares attributes the pullback primarily to the market’s interpretation of the Federal Reserve’s FOMC meeting as a “hawkish pause”.
Inflows ran at $635M in the first two days of the week before reversing sharply post-FOMC, generating $405M in outflows, though these moderated by Friday.
Bitcoin led asset-level flows at $219M for the week, while short-Bitcoin products attracted a further $6M — a sign of persistent polarisation around the asset. Geographically, all regional exchanges posted net gains. The US led at $153M, followed by Germany ($30.2M) and Switzerland ($27.5M).
Solana is gaining traction
Solana recorded $17M in inflows, extending its streak to seven consecutive weeks and $136M cumulative — making it one of the most consistently bid alt-assets in recent months. Ethereum reversed course with $27.5M in outflows, ending a three-week inflow streak. Chainlink ($4.6M) and Hyperliquid ($4.5M) were other notable gainers.
The week’s pattern underscores the degree to which macro signals — and the Fed specifically — continue to drive short-term positioning across digital asset products. With monetary policy expectations shifting, advisors tracking crypto allocation should anticipate continued sensitivity to rate path revisions.
