Digital asset investment products saw US$1.18bn inflows last week (subject to T+2 settlement), although this did not break the record set at the launch of the futures-based Bitcoin ETFs which totalled US$1.5bn back in October 2021. ETP Trading volumes did break records though, trading US$17.5bn last week, the highest on record, compared to an average of US$2bn per week in 2022. These trading volumes represented almost 90% of daily trading volumes on trusted exchanges last Friday, unusually high as they typically average between 2%-10%.
As expected, the United States dominated, seeing US$1.24bn of inflows last week, while Switzerland saw US$21m inflows. We suspect the outflows seen in Europe Canada (Canada US$44m, Germany US$27m Sweden US$16m) were basis traders looking to switch from Europe to the US.
Bitcoin saw US$1.16bn inflows last week, representing a significant 3% of total assets under management (AuM), while short-bitcoin also saw minor inflows totalling US$4.1m.
Ethereum saw inflows totalling US$26m and XRP US$2.2m. Solana was the notable exception, seeing only US$0.5m inflows last week.
Blockchain equities also saw large inflows totalling US$98m, bringing total inflows over the last 7 weeks to US$608m.
