- Bitcoin saw the largest inflow at $724 million, signaling renewed investor confidence, while XRP secured $6.7 million in investments.
- While Solana, Polygon, and Chainlink recorded positive inflows, Ethereum suffered the largest outflow of $86 million.
Digital asset investment products turned around a five-week trend of withdrawals with a total weekly net inflow of $644 million. The growth has been propelled primarily by Bitcoin and XRP, which, combined, record a massive $730 million net investment. Their increasing popularity showcases their ongoing superiority in the market despite Ethereum suffering the largest outflows among digital assets.
Bitcoin, XRP Dominate Market Inflows
Bitcoin was the biggest driver of investment activity, with $724 million of inflows, in the latest report issued by CoinShares. This is a big change in sentiment for the top crypto, which previously suffered weeks of consecutive outflows.
Close on the heels of BTC, XRP took the second spot in inflows, with $6.7 million flowing into investment products linked to the crypto, as reported in our previous story. The increased interest in XRP is a testament to its increasing usage and investors’ rising confidence.
Solana also experienced a jump in investments, with inflows of $6.4 million. Other altcoins, such as Polygon and Chainlink, also saw gains, albeit smaller ones, with inflows of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
On the other hand, Ethereum experienced the week’s greatest outflows, as investors pulled $86 million from ETH products. More losses were incurred by Sui and Short Bitcoin, as well as other altcoins like Polkadot, Tron, and Algorand, which experienced respective outflows of $1.3 million, $0.95 million, and $0.82 million.
BTC Reverses Negative Streak
For over a month, digital asset investment products had endured constant capital outflows, mirroring a time of market uncertainty. BTC’s recent recovery, though, has put a different story on the agenda, reaffirming its position as a leading force in the crypto world.
The renewed confidence in Bitcoin coincides with ongoing debates in the crypto community, particularly between BTC and XRP supporters. Speculation about the possible role of XRP in U.S. financial reserves has been propelling the debate, while strong support from institutional investors continues to support Bitcoin.
Crypto attorney Bill Morgan recently noted the Trump administration’s positive attitude toward BTC and how it may shape future trends in the U.S. crypto market. Building on the positive vibes for XRP, one of Japan’s top real estate companies, Open House, has diversified its crypto payment solutions to add XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), and Solana (SOL).
The move comes amidst the growing popularity of XRP as a tool for real-life transactions. As a response to this move, Bill Morgan pointed out Bitcoin’s absence from the most recent expansion, wondering why BTC was not included.
Earlier reports, though, affirm that Open House already supported Bitcoin and Ethereum as forms of payment earlier this year. The addition of XRP, DOGE, and SOL more recently indicates a larger effort for crypto adoption within the real estate industry.
