- Crypto investment products see $3.17 billion inflows amid volatility.
- U.S.-based funds lead, accounting for $3.01 billion in inflows.
- Record trading volumes highlight investor resilience despite market correction.
Global crypto investment products managed by firms like BlackRock, Bitwise, Fidelity, Grayscale, ProShares, and 21Shares recorded $3.17 billion in inflows last week. The latest report from CoinShares reveals that year-end inflows have reached $ 48.7 billion, exceeding the previous record set last year. Institutional interest was high, despite recent market turbulence.
James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, noted that outflows were low, even during the period of massive market sell-offs triggered by U.S. threats of tariffs. The amount taken out on Friday was only $159 million, indicating that the investors did not pull out their positions.
The wipeout of the crypto industry, which cost billions of dollars, led to liquidations, but vast sums of money still attracted new investments.

Record Trading Volumes and Market Correction
The weekly trading turnover of digital asset exchange-traded products reached a record $53 billion. This exceeded the average of 2025 by a factor of two. The daily turnover on Friday alone was a record of $15.3 billion. Following the announcement of tariffs by President Trump, the total assets under management declined by 7 percent to $242 billion.
The dollar value of positions liquidated in the sell-off was around $20 billion, the biggest liquidation event in history. Nevertheless, it is not clear whether the event was truly massive. Binance and OKX have yet to update their liquidation data, which means the current amount may be higher. Nonetheless, the key cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, demonstrated resilience.
U.S.-Based Funds Lead the Pack
The most significant inflows were in U.S.-based digital asset funds, which contributed $3.01 billion. There were also notable performances in crypto products in Switzerland and Germany, with inflows of 132 million and 53.5 million, respectively. In Sweden, Brazil, and Hong Kong, however, there were outflows of funds.
Bitcoin funds dominated the inflows, resulting in the acquisition of $ 2.67 billion in a week. This takes the annual Bitcoin inflows to a high of 30.2 billion. CoinShares also reported that the market volume during the correction on Friday reached $10.4 billion.
U.S.-listed Bitcoin ETFs were the first to have inflows of $2.71 billion. The U.S. market remained stable despite minor outflows to other regions. The withdrawal of $4.5 million on Friday was indicative of the fact that, even during the market correction, institutional investors continued to favor Bitcoin.
Expert Insights on Market Resilience
James Butterfill reiterated that the inflows were an indicator of rising investor confidence. Cryptocurrency assets proved resilient in the face of external forces. He stated that this trend is a sign of the growing maturity of the digital asset market. Crypto remains a long-term investment for institutional investors.
