  • Crypto investment funds attracted hundreds of millions last week.
  • The funds have made a turnaround after three weeks of consecutive net outflows.
  • Experts believe the flow reversal is due to โ€œweak pricesโ€ of digital assets.

Global crypto investment products recorded a significant inflow of funds in the first week of July, fueled by โ€œweakโ€ digital asset prices.

The funds have resumed a positive run following three weeks of consecutive net outflows, which started after a massive inflow of over $2 billion in the first week of June. CoinShares attributed the โ€œunusuallyโ€ high inflows to monetary policy rate cut expectations in the U.S.

Crypto Funds Rebound

According to a CoinShares report on July 8, digital asset investment products saw inflows totaling $441 million in the previous week. Bitcoin (BTC) accounted for 90% of the inflows as investors opted for a much broader set of altcoins.

โ€œMost notable of which was Solana, seeing US$16m last week, bringing year-to-date (YTD) inflows to US$57m, making it the best performing altcoin from a flows perspective. Ethereum sentiment seems to have turned, seeing US$10m inflows, but remains the only ETP to have seen net outflow YTD,โ€ the report read.

CoinShares attributed the inflows to the โ€œrecent price weaknessโ€ across the crypto market prompted by Mt. Gox and the German governmentโ€™s Bitcoin selling pressure, which can โ€œlikely be seen as a buying opportunity.โ€

Notable opportunistic buying was seen across various countries, including Hong Kong, Switzerland, and Canada, which accounted for $32 million, $24 million, and $12 million in inflows, respectively.

Per the report, the U.S. accounted for a bigger share of the inflows, totaling $384 million.
