DIGITAL ASSET INFLOWS HIT $1.2B AS MOMENTUM BUILDS

Digital asset investment products recorded $1.2 billion in inflows for a fourth consecutive week, per CoinShares. Bitcoin $BTC led with $933 million as total AUM climbed to $155 billion.

Digital asset investment products attracted $1.2 billion in net inflows last week, according to a CoinShares report published on April 27, extending a run of positive momentum into a fourth consecutive week. Total assets under management rose to $155 billion — the highest since February 1, though still well below the $263 billion peak reached in October 2025.

Bitcoin $BTC Leads, Ethereum $ETH Builds Consistency

$BTC remained the clear preference for incoming capital, drawing $933 million over the week and lifting cumulative net inflows for 2026 to $4 billion. CoinShares attributed the gains to improving institutional demand as Bitcoin traded at its highest level since early February.

$ETH was a notable secondary story. The asset pulled in $192 million, marking a third straight week of net inflows exceeding $190 million — a run that points to more durable demand rather than a one-off move. $XRP also returned to net inflows after one week of outflows.

Geographically, the US dominated, accounting for $1.1 billion of the weekly total. Short-Bitcoin products drew $16.5 million, reflecting ongoing hedging activity alongside the broader bullish positioning.

Broader Appetite Beyond Spot Tokens

Institutional interest is not confined to direct token exposure. Blockchain-related equity ETFs drew $617 million over the past three weeks, the highest weekly level on record, suggesting investors are also seeking listed equity vehicles tied to the digital asset ecosystem.

The four-week streak of inflows and the recovery in AUM levels point to a sustained, if cautious, re-engagement from institutional allocators — rather than the short-lived bounces that have characterised previous recoveries.
