TLDR

• Crypto funds recorded $288 million in net outflows last week, extending a five-week streak to $4 billion.
• Bitcoin led the losses with $215 million in outflows, while short-Bitcoin products attracted $5.5 million in inflows.
• The United States accounted for $347 million in withdrawals, while Europe and Canada posted combined inflows of $59 million.
• Trading volumes dropped to $17 billion, marking the lowest weekly level since July 2025.

Crypto investment products extended their losing run to five consecutive weeks as investors withdrew billions from the sector. CoinShares reported $288 million in net outflows last week, which pushed the total to about $4 billion over five weeks. Trading volumes also fell sharply, which reflected reduced market participation even as prices steadied.

Bitcoin Leads Outflows as Crypto Funds Face Pressure

Bitcoin recorded $215 million in outflows last week, which accounted for most of the weekly losses. This selling trend continued from previous weeks and kept pressure on overall crypto funds.

At the same time, short-Bitcoin products attracted $5.5 million in inflows, which marked the highest inflow among tracked assets. This shift showed that some traders positioned for further downside as Bitcoin remained rangebound.

Data also showed that Bitcoin traders increased leverage during the recent consolidation phase. Bitcoin represented over 40% of the $500 million in liquidations recorded on Monday.

Ethereum followed with $36.5 million in outflows during the same period. Multi-asset products and Tron also posted losses, with $32.5 million and $18.9 million withdrawn, respectively.

Meanwhile, select altcoins posted minor gains despite broader weakness across crypto funds. XRP added $3.5 million, while Solana and Chainlink drew $3.3 million and $1.2 million.

Regional Flows Show Diverging Investor Behavior

The United States led regional outflows with $347 million withdrawn from digital asset products. In contrast, Europe and Canada recorded combined inflows of $59 million during the week.

Switzerland led European inflows with $19.5 million added to crypto investment products. Canada and Germany followed with inflows of $16.8 million and $16.2 million.

This pattern matched recent regional trends reported in earlier market updates. European investors continued to buy during price weakness, while U.S. investors reduced exposure.

Trading volumes across digital asset products dropped to $17 billion last week. This figure marked the lowest weekly level since July 2025.

Tim Sun, senior researcher at HashKey Group, addressed the broader market stance in earlier comments. He said crypto assets remain “firmly anchored at the far end of the risk curve.”

Sun also stated that “increased uncertainty has dampened the willingness of ‘sidelined’ capital to enter the market.” He added that without sustained liquidity support, “any periodic bounces are more likely to be technical recoveries rather than trend reversals.”
