Crypto ETPs draw $1.1B as Bitcoin leads inflows

Crypto investment products recorded $1.1 billion in inflows last week, marking their strongest weekly gains since January as investor sentiment improved.

Bitcoin led the surge with $871 million in inflows, driven largely by demand for US spot ETFs, while easing inflation data and geopolitical tensions boosted risk appetite.

The inflows represent the second-largest weekly total in 2026, trailing only the $2.17 billion recorded in mid-January, according to CoinShares data.

The rebound came despite volatile spot markets, with Bitcoin reclaiming $70,000 and briefly surpassing $73,000, signalling continued institutional demand for regulated crypto exposure.

Ether saw inflows of $196.5 million after three consecutive weeks of outflows, although it remains in a net negative position year-to-date with $130 million in outflows.

Other assets showed mixed performance, with XRP attracting $19 million in inflows while Solana recorded minor outflows of $2.5 million.

Regionally, the United States dominated flows with $1 billion, accounting for 95% of total inflows, while Germany, Canada and Switzerland posted smaller gains.

At the time of reporting, Bitcoin price was $74,442.36.
