Digital Asset Fund Flows: Week of July 1–7, 2025

Overview

Digital asset investment products recorded another strong week, with $1.04 billion in net inflows, marking the twelfth consecutive week of positive flows and pushing total assets under management (AuM) to an all-time high of $188 billion. This performance underscores sustained institutional and retail appetite for digital assets, even as traditional markets such as cash, bonds, and stocks also saw significant inflows.

Asset-Specific Flows

Geographic Breakdown

• United States: $1 billion in inflows, dominating global flows.
• Germany: $38.5 million in inflows.
• Switzerland: $33.7 million in inflows.
• Canada & Brazil: Recorded outflows of $29.3 million and $9.7 million, respectively.

Trading Activity and Market Structure

• Weekly trading volumes surged to $16.3 billion, reflecting renewed investor engagement and higher liquidity.
• Bitcoin remains the primary driver, but its inflow of $790 million was below the three-week average of $1.5 billion, suggesting a modest cooling in demand.
• Short Bitcoin funds saw $400,000 in inflows, indicating mixed sentiment among some investors.
• Ethereum is gaining momentum, with average weekly inflows now twice that of Bitcoin since early May, driven by its increasing use in real-world asset tokenization and DeFi.
• Altcoins like Solana, XRP, and Sui continue to attract new capital, though at lower volumes, reflecting diversification beyond the two largest assets.

Institutional and ETF Trends

• Spot Bitcoin ETFs have attracted $14.4 billion in net inflows year-to-date, with continued accumulation by corporate treasuries and institutional investors.
• Ethereum ETFs are also gaining traction, with multiple weeks of net inflows and growing institutional allocation.
• Accumulation and Staking: Long-term holders are increasing their positions, and staking activity in Ethereum reached new highs, with over 35.5 million ETH staked as of July 1.

Market Sentiment and Outlook

• The ongoing streak of inflows highlights robust investor confidence in digital assets amid regulatory clarity and macroeconomic uncertainty.
• Bitcoin remains a core holding for both institutional and retail investors, but Ethereum’s role is expanding due to its foundational position in DeFi and tokenization.
• The shift away from multi-asset products toward single-asset funds suggests investors are seeking targeted exposure rather than broad diversification.

Conclusion

Digital asset funds posted record-breaking inflows and assets under management this week, led by Bitcoin and Ethereum but supported by growing interest in altcoins. The market’s resilience and evolving structure point to a maturing asset class, with institutional adoption and product innovation driving continued growth.
