What’s new? According to analytics firm CoinShares, digital asset investment products have posted their largest weekly inflows since July 2022, totaling $199 million. BTC was the primary beneficiary, with inflows into products based on it totaling $187 million, or 94% of the total assets, between June 17 and June 23. The outflow of short positions on bitcoin was observed for the ninth week in a row and amounted to $4,9 million. Trading volumes of cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) were 170% higher than this year’s average at $2,5 billion.
What other data is known? Experts at CoinShares believe that the renewed positive sentiment is due to recent filings by large companies to launch spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the United States. Total assets under management (AUM) now stand at $37 billion, the highest since the collapse of crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC), the analysts added.

Ethereum saw inflows of $7,8 million, or 0,1% of AUM, compared to 0,7% of inflows into BTC. Interest in ETH is currently lower than bitcoin.
The positive turn in sentiment has not been reflected in altcoins, CoinShares stressed. XRP and SOL saw inflows of $0,24 million and $0,17 million, respectively. That said, the improved sentiment prompted some investors to buy multi-asset investment ETPs, which had inflows of $8 million last week.
